Need to drop out of college

I find that there is nothing for me to major in. I feel like I should just drop out because I am frustrated with choosing a major. The ironic thing is, I am a good student but I really feel like I am wasting my time and money in college. So, can someone give me some advice?

What majors are you rejecting?

Do you have any idea what you might want to do to earn money?

Buy or borrow a book called What Color Is Your Parachute? Do the exercises to get a better idea of your own interests and strengths.

Take a leave rather than dropping out. That will make life easier if you ever do want to go back or even transfer.

it's really common to not know what u want to do yet, I don't either, really. I feel that's sort of what college is for. So, if you don't like college, do you want to go to a trade school instead?
