San Francisco State University is on my list, but I'm undecided on a major. What are some popular or highly regarded majors at SFSU? How supportive is the academic advising for students who are undecided?
One of the great aspects of San Francisco State University (SFSU) is its array of programs and its commitment to diversity and inclusion in its student body and curriculum. Some popular majors there include Business Administration, Cinema, and Clinical/social Psychology. It's also worth noting that several programs are nationally acclaimed, such as their Creative Writing MFA, their Sexuality Studies program, and their Cinema program.
Regarding support for undecided students, SFSU has a structured support system in place. The Undergraduate Advising Center provides assistance to undecided majors through academic counselors who can help guide you towards your interests and strengths. They assist students in understanding the general education requirements, exploring different disciplines through "Undeclared" workshops, and providing one-on-one advising. The aim is to help students make informed decisions about their academic path.
However, it's always beneficial to consider what topics you're passionate about or in which courses you've previously excelled. This self-reflection in conjunction with academic advisement can guide you towards the best fit for you. As a tip, you can also look through the course catalog to see what classes in different majors interest you.
