What is the hardest part of choosing a college to attend when you’re unsure of your major #spring23?
This information is beneficial to me because I am currently beginning to look into colleges and am struggling to decide one because I’m not fully set on a major. #spring23

Hi Gianna,
If you are not set on a major yet I would suggest saving money and doing two years at a local community college. In order to get a bachelor's degree there are two parts to it. Your general education credits and your major/minor. It takes about two years to complete your general education credits- this is your math, science, english, etc. General education credits often overlap with majors letting you explore a little of the majors you are interested in. I would use your first two years to complete your general education credits and explore the careers you are interested in by volunteering, getting a part-time job, or internship to learn more about a career you like.
If you really want to go away to a university I would just do the same thing and focus on your general education credits. The plus of going to a community college and completing your general education credits is that you can leave with a general associate's degree and save money.
I hope this helps!
