Hey, I'm planning on either majoring international relation, communication or English. But right now im in a crisis. Idk what I should major and which I should minor. But I want to do all 3. Or does anyone have a good suggestion to major in a field that is related to the above 3? And what are the most affordable colleges that do not require maths for entrance ? If anyone could answer me it'll be great!

Ok so, I’m panicking about majors and I’m not sure what to do. I love writing and graphic design. I’ve got a talent for English and such. But I also wanted to pursue graphic design and other arts. I’ve heard about double majors and majoring and minoring. I have a bit of an understanding but all the examples I’ve heard didn’t really pertain to my struggles so I find it hard to understand. If I were to get a major in English and a minor in graphic design or another art. Could I pursue a career in art? If I were to find something there would someone even care about a minor in art?
