(When you know what you want to be, it is easier to choose where to go.)
We are going to make a big confession: many students pick a college first and then pick their major and the classes they will take. This is fine, and we will discuss it later.
However, if you have gone through the first pages of this site and taken the time to make profiles of your interests and future dreams - you might already be confident enough to know what you want to major in. If so, pass directly to GO and go to the Pick a School page.
Now, on the other hand, if you are merely trying to select a major, let us get into the thing called the Course Catalog.
First, let us go ahead and get overwhelmed, and then we will back off and settle in on a realistic approach to selecting a college major. The overwhelming part is that most colleges offer literally thousands of classes and just looking at this Course Catalog can be very confusing. But do not let it get you off track.
For High School, it is important to have the Indiana Core 40 requirements met - and colleges will have requirements too. Each school you look at is going to have minimum requirements for each major area of study. You will need to have so many hours of different level courses in your major and then fill out the rest of your college hours with other courses, which you can randomly "elect". So, when you look at the Course Catalog, pay attention to the "electives" - the classes you elect to take that are not part of your major area of study. If you see a few electives in one general area (let us say you have a fascination for Medieval Literature), you might consider getting a "minor" in that area. Or, you may make up your own non-major course of study that has electives in everything from Japanese Print Making to Pueblo Indian Studies.
Ultimately, what you major in is going to come down to what you are really good at OR what you want to do. So, you have to decide some things before moving ahead. If you need more direction about your interests, let us back up to the You Can Do It page and visit some of the links.
