Hello! I'm a junior and I'm starting to look at colleges. I'm not sure what I want to study yet, and I was wondering if it's okay to apply to colleges as an undecided major. What do you think? Thanks for your input!
Hello! It's completely normal to be uncertain about what you want to study when applying to college. Many students enter college as undecided majors and spend their first year or two exploring their interests before committing to a specific major. Most schools are quite understanding of this and even have academic advising programs in place to help guide students in choosing their majors. However, it's a good idea to research your top choice schools and their policies on undecided majors beforehand. Some universities have specific programs for undecided students, while others may encourage you to select a major upon application. Don't stress too much about it, and remember that it's better to take your time to find the right major for you than to rush into a decision that you might regret later on. Good luck with your college search!
