What college majors will allow me to keep my options open towards jobs in healthcare?
I am currently a senior in high school; I am completely set that I want to have a job in healthcare in the future. I have been interested in dentistry for a while, specifically dental hygiene, though I also want to make more options available for myself in the field because my mind can always change in the long run and end up not wanting to go to the dental route. Which majors or programs would allow me to explore different paths before I really commit to one? What colleges would you recommend in Southern California? I also want to ask if I could be able to do the cc transferring to university route in my situation as well?
