Choosing a college major is a huge decision that will affect the rest of your life. If you’re still undeclared–or if you’re curious what you should have majored in–then read on to discover the perfect college major for your zodiac sign!
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Aries has a competitive streak a mile wide. That often translates to a love of sports; in fact, if you don’t have an athletic scholarship, chances are good that you’re at least involved with extracurricular sports on campus. As for your major, look into a field where you can rise to the top. A business degree is a smart choice for an Aries, but don’t discount the performing arts!
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
It would make sense for Taurus to be a financial major, right? Putting the “bull” in the “bull and bear” stock market. But as a Taurus, you’re more drawn to nature and beauty. That’s why we think you should study architecture or interior design in college.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Gemini is the sign of the Zodiac most likely to change college majors at least twice. You can’t help being curious about a wide range of topics–which means that settling on just one focus is not easy for you. Since you’re ruled by Mercury, you excel at communication. Maybe a journalism degree is in your future?
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Paging Dr. Crab to the ER! Cancer is a natural nurturer. You feel compelled to help people, and a pre-med track is an ideal way for you to achieve that goal. If medicine isn’t quite your cup of tea, look into something like social work or early childhood education.
Leo (July 23-August 22)
Leo has pretty much 2 options when it comes to college majors. This attention-loving Zodiac sign is either going into the performing arts or political science. You’ll absolutely slay no matter what you choose!
Virgo (August 23-September 22)
Virgo was voted most likely to be a perfectionist. Your attention to detail would make for an amazing accountant. However, if you’d like to help people and put your skills to good use, you might consider majoring in criminal justice instead.
Libra (September 23-October 22)
Libra’s symbol is literally the scales of justice! You already know that pursuing a law degree makes sense for your fair-minded, analytical nature. You’d make an outstanding judge someday. If the law doesn’t feel like a good fit, you could also be an unbiased news reporter with a journalism degree.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
No, Scorpio, you can’t major in “being awesome.” Instead, you should look into a psychology degree. Although you can be very secretive about your own life, people love to talk to you. In fact, they’re drawn to you like moths to a flame–so use those powers for good as a therapist or psychiatrist!
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
No matter what you study, you should plan to take a year abroad during your college experience. Maybe even consider a gap year before heading to school so that you can travel and see more of the world. Once you settle on a major, pick something that will help you live a flexible lifestyle in the future. Might we suggest a business degree with a focus on entrepreneurship?
Capricorn (December 23-January 20)
Capricorn is often a STEM genius with a clear plan of how to use those skills to change the world. You should definitely consider a major in something like chemistry or engineering, or even computer science. You’ll be building robots or smashing atoms in no time!
Aquarius (January 20-February 18)
As an Aquarius, you want to make life better for everyone. You’d be a wonderful teacher, so consider a degree in education. If that doesn’t appeal, you might feel drawn to psychology or even pre-med as a way to help others and heal the world.
Pisces (February 19-March 20)
Pisces, you’re going to have a hard time pinning down a major. And an even harder time convincing your family that a degree in photography or studio art is a good way to spend your college years. But you’re a creative soul who needs to follow your passion, wherever it takes you. Even if it doesn’t always seem practical to other people.
