The choice of a major is one of the most important decisions you will make as an undergraduate. It is the centerpiece of your education and affects your choice of career. As a student in the College of Arts and Sciences, you enjoy a wide range of majors from which to choose.
Students choose majors at different points in their college career.
About half of the first-year students who enter the College of Arts and Sciences each year have chosen a major and about half are undecided. In addition, students in our college change majors an average of two to three times over the course of their undergraduate careers. Good advising is the key to choosing a major and to success in that major. We have created special advising programs for first year students to help you with course choices. If you know what you would like to major in, your advisor will help you make the best choices for that major.
