If you know you want to graduate from the UW, familiarize yourself with our list of majors . Most students run through several potential majors before they find the subject they enjoy most. Give yourself time to do this by starting to investigate potential majors in your freshman year. It's a good idea to finish a sequence of courses at the school where you started it. If you plan ahead, you can avoid transferring in the middle of sequences.
Most students say their main reason for attending college is to get a good job.
There's nothing wrong with that. It's a mistake, however, to think that your college major will prepare you for a particular job. Your career is likely to be completely unrelated to your college major. Many people discover that a college degree is necessary for the kind of career they want to pursue, but it doesn't matter at all what their college major was. A college degree has great value in the job market, but probably not for the reasons you think.
