In every college is a student wondering about their major. More specifically, whether or not they feel as if it's the best and most realistic decision for them. Many of us, at some point or another, will also compare ours to other majors, wondering if we made the right choice. After all, a major isn't something you can or should easily switch all the time, especially when it's a life determiner.

Some of us were influenced by family or friends or persuaded by society's expectations. And of course, let's not forget the majors who constantly receive comments asking, "what are you actually going to do with that?", basically implying they've made the wrong choice in others eyes. Theater, art, music, and sometimes even English majors are familiar with this annoying and pointless question. But no matter what major you are, all of them come with some form of risk, competition, and luck when applying for jobs.

It's possibly the most nerve-wracking event if you change your major because it's much more than signing documents–it's like altering the path in your life. I am among one of the many college students who changed majors, because I felt as though my previous one wasn't the right one for me, and simply did not supersede a whole other passion I had. If you're taking a class that directly relates to your major, and you feel surrounded by people who you feel are more passionate about the class material than you are, or if you feel entirely out of place, you should consider changing your major so that you're taking a class that you are passionate about. This is how I felt in my previous major, and when I finally changed it, I felt as if I related to everyone around my in the new classes I was taking.

I, of course, still sometimes have doubts, even though I am ten times more excited to be doing what I am doing now, but I feel as though my major fits me perfectly now. Many people might think sticking with their original path is easier because you won't be stuck in college for an extra year or two, but it is definitely worth it if you really have another passion. two years is definitely worth saving 30-40 years of your life. and even debt can be worth making more money and being happier in life.
