Mostly A’s: COLLEGE OF COMMUNICATION

You are creative, artistic and inquisitive. You are social and well-informed of the latest issues occurring around you.

Consider a major in digital media, advertising, journalism, theatre arts or corporate communication.

Mostly B’s: COLLEGE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION

You are free-thinking, determined and career-minded. You are interested in understanding and participating in the behind-the-scenes work of successful companies and may even hope to run one someday. Consider a major in marketing, accounting, finance, human resources, entrepreneurship or business administration.

Mostly C’s: COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING

You are an abstract thinker and interested in how things work. You are willing to put in long hours building machines and working in a co-op to get the most out of your education. Consider a major in biomedical, civil, electrical or environmental engineering.

Mostly D’s: COLLEGE OF EDUCATION or COLLEGE OF NURSING or COLLEGE OF HEALTH SCIENCES

You love being around people. You enjoy helping others and are interested in bringing about social justice and individual well-being. You are not afraid of a heavy course load — think organic chemistry or cell biology — because of your dedication to directly helping those in need. Consider a major in nursing, elementary/middle or middle/secondary education, or athletic training.

Mix of A’s, B’s, C’s and D’s: COLLEGE OF ARTS & SCIENCES

You are open-minded, creative and inquisitive. Your interests are varied and you excel at many subjects, like foreign languages, history or the sciences. Consider majors such as history, psychology, political science, chemistry or anthropology.
