		During her sophomore year of college, she was undecided about her major until she took "Storytelling and Fairy Tales," a course which required the class to be on TV.

	Academic major - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An academic major, major concentration, concentration, or simply major is a mainly U.S. and Canadian term for a college or university student's main field of specialization during his or her undergraduate studies.
		The university department offering the major defines a framework for the student's studies, including a certain number of required courses and a certain number of freely chosen courses relevant to the major.
		Some majors in some universities effectively define the student's full course of study; many others allow students considerable latitude both within their field and in their other courses.

	College Search: Majors and College Search
		Whenever you apply to a college that asks you to list your choice of major on your application, be sure to find out if that choice is "binding." That is, ask admission officials if you can switch your major as soon as you enroll, if you so choose.
		Luckily, most colleges don't require you to commit to a major at the time of your application (though many WILL ask what your possible major or primary areas of academic interest might be).
		Keep in mind, however, that--in most cases--a college major is made up of only about 10 to 12 courses, and most college students take about 32 courses during their four undergraduate years.

	Choosing a College Major: How to Chart Your Ideal Path
		Yes, there are some students who arrive on campus and know exactly their major and career ambitions, but the majority of students do not, thus there is no need to rush into a decision about your major as soon as you step on campus.
		A majority of students in all colleges and universities change their major at least once in their college careers; and many change their major several times over the course of their college career.
		And don't be discouraged if you still don't have a major the first time you take this journey...your goal should be narrowing your focus from all possible majors to a few areas that you can then explore in greater depth.
