• It's all right to be undecided. (Most students change majors at least once during their college career.)
• People change careers (not just jobs, but career fields) on an average of more than three times during their working years.
• Many career fields do not require a specific major. People with specific major do not have to use them in the ways most commonly expected.
• Many college majors do not offer specific preparation for a single type of work but can enable you to become anything you want to be.
• Choice of major is only one factor in determining your future job prospects and career path.
• Electives or extra-curricular activities and leadership potential are often as important as grades or majors to a prospective employer.

The relationship between college majors and career fields varies. Some fields, such as teaching and engineering, require certification or special training, but many fields do not. The world is full of pre-med lawyers, investment brokers with psychology degrees, and entrepreneurs who majored in history.
