A Six-Step Process to Finding a College Major

One of the greatest stressors for college-bound high-school students – as well as for some college students – is choosing a college major. Deciding your major (and minor) is a life decision, and the one that can have an impact on your plans beyond. This will help guide your thinking as you take steps toward choosing a college major that is best for you.

Step 1: Self-Assessment of Interests. Write down a list of activities, course subjects, and topics that interest you, inspire you. What are your likes and dislikes – about school, hobbies, work, and volunteering? If you have taken an assessment test at school (or online), you can enter some of the results here as well.

Step 2: Examination of Skills and Abilities. One of the most important elements in choosing a major (and a future career) is a realistic review of your strengths and weaknesses, skills and abilities. It’s important to take an honest view of the subjects / skills you are best at, as well as those you struggle with. Write down your best and worst skills and abilities.

Skills That I Don’t Want to Use or am Weak in: ______________________

Step 3: Understanding What You Value About Work. Different jobs and careers provide a range of intrinsic rewards to people working in them. For example, teachers place a much greater value on educating and impacting the lives of their students than they do on financial rewards. What are you seeking from your career? Some examples include helping society, working under pressure, group affiliation, stability, security, social status, financial rewards. Write down a list of what you seek from your future career.

Step 4: Researching Occupations and Careers. Many students have an idea of the types of work they may want to do, but rarely do they have a full understanding of the requirements of the work – or even what the work fully entails. Others have never really thought about careers and have little or no knowledge of what they want to do after college. This step involves conducting research and recording the information you found about one or more potential career fields.

Step 5: Information Review & Reality Check. Now that you have a better understanding of yourself and one or more potential career paths, it’s time to conduct an honest appraisal of whether your skills, interests, and values are a good match with the careers that most excite you. For example, you may love the idea of becoming a doctor, but do not have the math or science skills necessary for medical school. Your task in these situations is to conduct further research to see if other career paths in the same field will be a good match for you. (Go back to Step 4 if you need to conduct more research.) Write down the list of careers and jobs that best fit you, starting with the career that best seems to fit your interests and skills.
