Don't be Afraid to Change Your Major!

College is a time of big changes and self-discovery. As you start to find new interests or passion areas, don’t be afraid of pursuing them. If you realize that your major isn’t the right fit for you, that’s totally okay! About 80% of college students change their major at some point during their college career, and at Purdue about 50% of students do – so it’s more common than people think. Study what interests and fulfills you, even if that means making a change to your plan of study.
