Going into college with a direction is great, however, going in with an open mind is even more important. I would suggest for your first semester, taking one or two classes in your “intended” major and filling the rest of your schedule with a variety of other subjects which fulfill core curriculum requirements. You never know what will spark your interest.
My freshman roommate started out as a geology major. What can I say, the girl loved rocks! But after two semesters on this track, she realized that it was not for her. Second semester freshman year, she took intro to Psychology with me. Then, in Sophomore year, we took a class in sign language. We loved it! She eventually majored in Psychology and has been a Special Education teacher for the last 25 years. Keep an open mind!
