Everything you need to know about entering college as ‘undecided’

When it comes to choosing majors, there are two kinds of students. One group knows from the get go exactly what they want to study and do after they graduate. The other isn't completely sure yet—or is in between two or three fields of study—and not ready to declare a specific major. If you fall into that latter group, there’s a good chance you will be entering undecided. And if that’s case, you might be a little (okay, a lot) nervous about it. Good news! This guide is for you.
