I need help deciding on major/minor.

Ok here's my dilemma.

I'm really interested in Nutrition (my current major) and Psychology (currently set as my minor).

Ideally, I'm planning on going to grad school after undergrad and have plans to work as a nutritional psychologist where I would help people with eating disorders, body image issues, etc.

Do you think it makes more sense to major in Psychology over Nutrition or keep it as it for now? Like I said, I'm planning on attending grad school after undergrad and I'm not entirely sure if grad school would be for Psychology or Nutrition either. Uhh! Decisions.

Does anybody have any input on this?

Oh, and if it's worth anything, I'm going to try and get into the University of Toronto for grad school. They have both programs there.

Grad schools aren't going to be too terribly concerned with your major choice. Rather they are going to be looking at the types of courses you have taken in your proposed field. You can do the Nutr major/psych minor and just take additional psych classes to show a deep education in the subject.
