I have recently started an application to the University I wish to attend; however, I am having trouble deciding on a major. I have always had an interest towards architectural, aeronautical, and civil engineering, but I feel it would do me no good as a Marine officer; I am looking to make a career out of it. Those majors are severely difficult, while the challenge doesn't bother me, I'm afraid it could end up being a complete waste of time for an aspiring Infantry officer. As of lately I've been looking into Finance, that way I could gain a better understanding of the stock market and economy. I feel this major could potentially advance myself as critical decision maker. Only one simple problem. I'm not sure if I'm interested in it. I realize I have plenty of time before coming to an actual decision on a major, therefore I would be forever grateful to hear some answers on your pre-commission college experiences.
(These questions may only apply to current midshipmen/officers).
- What major did you study before earning a commission?
- Was it helpful to your military career?
- Difficult or effortless?
- Time consuming?
- What do you suggest?
Answering questions like that would be greatly appreciated. If you did not commission and were enlisted feel free to respond with your opinion and what you would've likely done. Thanks.
