What are the advantages of starting college as a deciding student?
If you complete a thorough exploration and decision-making process during your first year in college, starting out as a deciding major will increase the probability that you will make a good choice of major. Also, many deciding students graduate with more breadth in their degrees because they complete double majors or add minors to their majors as a result of their exploration. Finally, deciding students learn how to research options, evaluate alternatives, and make decisions, and this can be a valuable lesson learned in college.
