Exploring Career and Major Options
As you begin your major and career exploration, there are many online tools available. Spending the time to work through these tools will help you narrow down your career and major choices. Remember to take it a few times, your interest always change, and you may have something new show up that you hadn’t considered before! Here are a few that INvestEd recommends to get you started:

Do Something!
Want to actually DO something to help figure out what your skills and interests are? Volunteer in your community or job shadow someone in a career field you’re interested in!
