Choosing A College Based On Your Desired Major
It is sometimes hard and confusing to decide what course to pursue in college and what career to take on in the future. But you must know that being able to determine what you want in life will guide you in choosing a major and the right college as well.
Think about your goals in life and how you see yourself five or ten years from now. It’s natural though that your long-term goals may be altered through time but what matters is that you have a plan. A plan can be your map in your travel towards the future. This should include your personality, goals, values and academic strengths and weaknesses which will help you determine what to look for in colleges and universities. Knowing yourself well will also help you make a good presentation of yourself during interviews and in the essays you submit.
To help you select a major, consider a course that will give you a huge potential for personal development. Try to ask yourself if this major will help you develop as a human being, will give you an opportunity to gain a wider perspective of the world and will enable you to understand the things you are curious about. In other words, look for a major you are very interested in.
If you’re thinking of pursuing graduate studies after college, then pick a major that will give you a good foundation for the professional areas you are targeting to enter. A history major will greatly benefit those who wish to enter a graduate program in law, library science and urban planning.
Consider also a combination of a marketable liberal arts and sciences major and a technical minor. You can major in a subject you really like and one that will guarantee an employment after graduation. Your minor can be in some field you enjoy but not one you actually consider as a career potential. Who knows, having two courses will make you more attractive to employers.
By now, you should have an idea on what to major in college and what schools your prefer. However, if you’re still not satisfied, you can consult your college guidance counselor. You may set an appointment if your school does not have a regular schedule for counseling for juniors and seniors. You can visit the guidance counselor as often as you wish while still in school. He or she can provide you with information on college fairs where you can personally meet school representatives and can give you helpful tips on taking tests, filling up applications and searching for financial aid. More importantly, the guidance counselor can assist you in what course to pursue based on your interests and academic performance. Be open to him or her about any apprehensions you may have regarding choosing a course and an appropriate school.
Currently, there are various subjects or fields of study to choose from. Under these subjects are more specific areas where you can major. The most popular majors being pursued by teens in the U.S. today are in business, psychology and education. A survey has found that the top ten majors preferred by college students include Business Administration, Business Management, Psychology, Elementary Education, Education, Biology, Nursing, English, Computer Science and Political Science. Be sure to find out, too, the courses involved and other requirements you may need to accomplish in your chosen field.
