Once I committed to Cedarville, I also had to start thinking of what I wanted my major to be. The problem was, I really had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. I was only 18!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>My Journey<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">I began exploring all the majors Cedarville offered, even taking the course catalog and scribbling out the majors I knew I did not want to do. I left myself with a few options, one being <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cedarville.edu\/academic-schools-and-departments\/nursing\/undergraduate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">nursing<\/a>. I have always loved to take care of people, and I come from a medical-minded family with several doctors and nurses. After thinking about it, I chose that as my major and figured I could create a life out of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">A few weeks into my freshman year, I realized I was wrong and decided it was already time to change my major. I loved the classes for nursing and the professors, but I just could not see myself being a nurse when I graduated. I met with several professors asking them for their advice on what to do, and I stumbled upon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cedarville.edu\/academic-programs\/psychology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">psychology<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">I met with a psychology professor and, as soon as our meeting had finished, I knew this was what my next step should be. Second semester of freshman year came, and it was time to start my new major. I became heavily involved in the psychology department, even being on the officer\u2019s board in the student organization for it. I loved it, and I loved the professors!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">A year and a half had gone by, and I was finishing sophomore year of college at this point. But something just didn\u2019t feel right. Once again, I would be changing majors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">I wanted a broad major, something I could use in a multitude of fields once I graduate. Looking into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cedarville.edu\/academic-programs\/communication\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">communication<\/a> major at Cedarville, I started to really enjoy the idea of being an event\/wedding planner. There were classes listed in the major that would point me in this direction, and I became eager to switch majors for the second time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Going into junior year, I was nervous. Was I going to graduate on time? What if I end up wanting to switch majors again? I knew very few people in this new major, but I truly felt this was where God wanted me to be, <\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">and now I absolutely love it. I have finally found my major.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559731&quot;:720,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Tips<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">It took me a while to get to this major that will prepare me with a job out of college that excites me and that I want to do.
