Identify the career and course of study you wish to pursue.
Develop your educational and career goals and identify possible majors. Determine what you want your education to prepare you to do.
If you need information about careers or help making your decision, visit the Career Services office for assistance or enroll in STU 1050. There, you can learn more about your interests, abilities, experiences, values, potential occupations, special strengths, and education and transfer possibilities, by using DISCOVER, the Strong Interest Inventory, and/or the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (career guidance and assessment instruments).
Remember, these decisions may change over time, but four-year schools expect you to apply for, and make a commitment to, a specific major when you transfer.
It is recommended that you complete this step after completing 30 transferable credits.
