By News Staff
Rhode Island College wants its freshmen to decide on a major their first year in school
The college announced it’s eliminated “Undeclared” as a major for incoming freshmen.
The reason? School administrators think it will help students in school and boost graduation rates.
RIC has a new program called ‘Exploring Majors’ to help with the decision.
According to the school, students who declare majors are more likely to stay in school and graduate in four years.
