Is changing majors a good idea?

Changing majors is ultimately a good idea if you are struggling in your field of study or find another degree path that better fits with your career goals. Students often change their majors based on newly discovered interests while attending college. Finding where you excel is a big part of the college experience. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, four out of five college students will change their majors at least once. While changing your major could open new opportunities, it's also important to consider the risks of doing so, including the financial impact of adding time to earn a degree.
