What is Fall Into Your Major?

March Into Your Major is an event for students who are unsure of their major, have chosen a major but are not sure it’s the right fit for them or students who are confident of their choice of major but are unsure of what careers they can actually pursue with their major. At the event, students will have the following opportunities:

• See what majors/minors/certifications are offered at UTSA
• Ask questions to help you learn if your choice of major or career path is a good fit for YOU!
• Learn about the requirements for your major/minor and the process to change or declare your major/minor
• Learn about potential internships and career opportunities
