You don’t need to choose a specific major when starting your college experience. This program is intended to help students who either are not sure what academic area they would like to study or were not directly admitted to a specific program. In most cases, if you use your first year to take courses that fulfill the Global Miami Plan and divisional requirements, you can still complete a major program with no delay. However, to complete some majors in a four-year time period, you must begin them as a first-year student.
