[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the answer. Don’t push him to decide on a major right now. Encourage him to think about what interests him and take classes in those areas. I’m guessing he doesn’t need to declare a major until the end of second year. He’s in his first semester of college—he doesn’t need the answer to this question yet![/quote]. This. Freshman year is for feeling overwhelmed and then starting to feel less overwhelmed. Sophomore year is for taking a variety of courses beyond freshman-specific ones and narrowing down/opening up options. I agree DS should enjoy college and recommend trying to take off the pressure to decide until the middle of next year as a way to do that. – College Professor, with nephew who is now a happy sophomore developing a much clearer sense of what he wants to do after eliminating some things he really didn't like last year.[/quote]
