hii well for one i think it’s good that you’re aware of the fields you’re interested in! i think that’s a good place to start. i think more so than a passion, your major could be an area that keeps you curious or engaged with the things you learn there. we didn’t have majors in our degree program but i remember choosing my electives for our sort of minor (it’s complicated lol) and nothing really struck me but i picked ones that were aligned with the things i cared about and could expand my ideas about it (e.g. community welfare, anthropology, indigenous psychology, etc.). maybe you can look at the courses under each major and see if the classes sound interesting to you! check out their syllabi. personally, i think fields that keep you curious motivate you more.

another thing is whether a certain major aligns with the kind of career you want to have in the future or will get you closer to it. if you have any student orgs or profs who graduated from your same program, you can also study what kind of career trajectory they had under their majors and see which one appeals to you. set up a meeting with them or stalk their linkedin profiles. obviously it’s not always clear cut but it could give you some sort of idea over what you’re getting into.

also, trust your gut. a lot of the time people end up in majors or programs they know isn’t the right fit for them because it’s the most “practical” or has the most earning potential. but it’ll be hard if it’s something that doesn’t sustain your interest somehow and eventually puts you on a path you don’t actually want. you still have time so i know you’ll figure it out!! don’t pressure yourself too much and trust that you’ll make the right decision. i’m rooting for you 🫂💗 also thank you so much, i’m looking forward to writing film news hehehe lemme know btw when you pick your major!
