Up until, my ideal plan on what to major/minor in during college has been to double major in music and psychology and minor in Spanish. But of course, as the school year has gone by, I've been doing a lot more research about the career path I want to take and what schools have to offer academically. I've learned a few things:
- Though I am very interested in psychology, it just doesn't seem to correlate with what I want to do with my life.
- Sociology is probably the major that would help me in the way I thought psychology would.
- I would love to major in youth ministry.
- It's going to be difficult to fit in music.
- The same deal with Spanish; and I was wanting to major in it because it is very useful for working with inner city kids and working with children globally. So it makes sense, but I might want to simply continue to study it and have it as a skill without majoring/minoring in it.
So, maybe I want to go with something more along the lines of double majoring in sociology and youth ministry (if the school I end up going to has that) and minoring in music? I'm not sure. I would appreciate prayers to help me figure out what the best path would be! That will also be an integral part of choosing a school, because, for example, if I decide I really need to major in youth ministry, that will drastically change what schools I can go to. Luckily I do not need to know
right now, but I'm always trying to figure it out. Thanks!
*EDIT: The statement I made after the list things I've learned is a little too limiting. Basically, I'm looking at the following areas of study to major or minor in:
- Urban Studies
- Vocal Performance
- Sociology
- Social Policy
- Religion
- Music
- Spanish
I'm pretty confident that my combination of majors and minors will consist of subjects from that list or similar, but more specific, subjects that whatever school I end up attending offers.
