The Juggling Act of Finding the Right Major

Your student has been on campus for a couple of months now. They’ve made friends, settled in, maybe joined a club or activity...you can relax! Until they call you and say, “I didn’t do so well on my midterms and I don’t think this major is for me.” How can you support and coach your student through changing their major? How can you help them figure out if a change is a good idea? What if they haven’t chosen a major yet? Laura and Beth chat with Lynn Zlotkowski, Director of the Wolak Learning Center at Southern New Hampshire University, about helping your student navigate their academic plans.
