Changing the Major in University

Recently it has become a common phenomenon for college students to apply for changing their majors.

In this way, they can learn what they're most interested in if their applications are approved.

Although it may bring unfavorable consequences, we can be sure to conclude that this practice is favorable on the whole.

To begin with, some students can't choose their favorite major because their entrance examination scores are not satisfactory enough, but the new system of changing major gives them a second chance.

Moreover, once they are learning their favorite major, they will probably be more confident and diligent than before.

Finally, students learn largely the same basic courses during the first one or two years, so changing major will not bring learning difficulties.

In a word, we can naturally arrive at the conclusion that it is beneficial and rewarding.

This system not only gives students a second chance to choose their major, but also prepares them for the coming competition.
