Hello,
I am planning to change my major in my senior year from history to economics, English, or MIS since I could not get any internships for the summer. I am leaving my current university to go back to community college and transfer to a different university. I also did not like the fact that one of my business professors poked fun at me and saying that history is primarily for teaching. I wanted to get into government or teaching, but now it is not the correct major for me and I want to make the swap to a new major, so, in a way, I am planning to throw away everything I have accomplished since I feel regret in choosing my major and I felt like I have not accomplished anything. Writing is more of my strength though. Counselors at my school approve of my plan to leave my university, go to community college, and transfer to a new university- all of my general education will go through. Even though people tell me that it is too late to swap my major and that I should pursue a Masters’ Degree- they are too difficult, so I am going back to get a different bachelors’ degree since I could not get a job or an internship with my current major, and history majors do not lead to a specific job (aside from teaching and government), so I do not know if my move would be a good move or a bad one.
