for anyone studying in religious institutions, colleges, universities, and seminaries, what should i consider when striving to major in religious studies?

for context, Im a junior in high school, and the only student (as far as i know) that wants to major in patristics. Im a catechumen in the eastern orthodox church, and have been talking with my spiritual father and faith studies leader (who is a graduate from HCHC college with a Masters of Divinity degree (MDiv)). you do not need to be specifically Eastern Orthodox to answer my question. i am open to all insights from all denominations (Oriental Orthodox, Roman Catholic, Protestant, Assyrian Church of the East, ect). also if possible and comfortable, could you describe your experience in religious studies?
