Family Forum: How to Choose a Major

*Exclusively for Families that work with Access College America!

Parents, are you concerned that your student is unsure what they want to study in college? Students, are you stressed about where to start with career and major exploration? This Family Forum will address many ways to begin addressing these questions, including  the benefits of informational interviews, open online classes, career-focused electives, research tools and work based learning. We will also discuss the role that parents should play within this process, and how they can support their teens in their decisions. Appropriate for all grade levels, this Family Forum is a great way for families to look beyond the classroom and seek out enriching experiences that will lead to an informed choice of college major and potential careers.
