ISU Central Academic Advising to host Majors and Minors Fair Oct. 15

Idaho State University Central Academic Advising will host the annual ISU Majors and Minors Fair, “A Major A’Faire,” on Wednesday, Oct. 15, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Pond Student Union.

ISU undergraduate departments will be represented at the Majors and Minors Fair and faculty will be available to answer questions and explain program options. Students are encouraged to take advantage of having access to ISU departments in one location and use the event to investigate and ultimately discover a major or minor that is a suitable fit with their interests and talents.

ISU students must declare a major by the time they are a junior (58 credits), but it is recommended to narrow down major and minor choices by the end of freshman year. Central Academic Advising will provide information on the importance of major and career exploration, assessing academic aptitude, how to declare a major and minor, and the importance of “catalog year.”

High school seniors have been invited to participate in a full morning of activities at ISU on Oct. 15, including the Majors and Minors Fair from 10 a.m.– noon. Students are asked to sign up at their school so that they can participate in the fair and receive transportation to ISU.

The Majors and Minors Fair is part of the semester long Harvest Your Potential series sponsored by Central Academic Advising.
