My friends have already chosen their majors. There is no one type of exploratory student, just as there is no one type of Ithaca College student.
Exploratory students have a range of interests and strengths both inside and outside the classroom.
You can declare a major as early as the end of your first semester, and approximately three-quarters of our exploratory students declare a major after two or three semesters. But you can take up to four semesters to declare your major. My friends have already chosen their majors. Many students need and, in fact, relish the opportunity to explore a range of disciplines before committing themselves to a major. It may make more sense to register as exploratory than to commit yourself prematurely to a major that you may change your mind about later.
