The Myths About A College Education That Everyone Should Know

As I have three boys, all college age, I often wonder the same things that they do. Is  it better to just get out in the workforce these days than to worry about getting a college degree? What if I don't know what I want to do? Should I just pick anything, and go with it? What if I don't like it once I'm in the program?

There are so many questions...and so many myths.

THE MYTHS

1. Everyone but me is CERTAIN of their Major.

2. It's better to declare ANY Major than be undecided

3.  I should decide my Major as soon as possible.

4. Once I declare a Major, I'm STUCK with it.

THE FACTS
