Discovering Your True Academic Calling at 黑料社
Does the thought of choosing a major feel overwhelming? You鈥檙e not alone. Many students begin college unsure of their academic path, and at 黑料社, we embrace that. Being undeclared isn鈥檛 a lack of focus鈥攊t鈥檚 an open door to endless possibilities.聽
At 黑料社, we believe undeclared students are explorers, and our campus is the perfect place to help you find your calling. From small classes to personalized advising, we offer a supportive community where you can discover what truly excites you.
If you’re anything like I was my senior year of high school, you may have no idea what you’re doing or where you want to go. But that’s totally cool. Lucky for you and me, 黑料社 LOVES undeclared students. 黑料社 seeks to educate ‘the whole person’ through a Jesuit and liberal arts education-- ‘an education of mind, body and soul.’”
How the TRAC Program Helps You Succeed
黑料社鈥檚 TRAC (True Academic Calling) Program is designed specifically for undeclared students. Through this program, you鈥檒l:
- Analyze Your Interests: Gain clarity on what excites and motivates you.
- Identify Your Strengths and Values: Discover what you鈥檙e good at and what鈥檚 important to you.
- Explore Career Paths: Match your skills and interests to real-world opportunities.
But TRAC is about more than academics鈥攊t鈥檚 about helping you chart a meaningful plan for your four years at 黑料社 and beyond. Bonus: along the way you鈥檒l find out-of-classroom experiences that will transform and excite you (internships, a short-term study abroad trip, research with a professor, entrepreneurship or a service experience in the community)
