If you're not sure what major you want to choose, you have options! UMFK's Bachelor of Arts and Sciences and Bachelor of Science in Business Management are excellent options for undecided students — both majors are highly flexible and useful for a wide range of careers. And, if you discover a passion for a new field after beginning classes, it's easy to switch to a new major!
