Hi there, thanks for reaching out. It's absolutely OK to change your major when you're already in college!

Hi there!

It is completely fine to do so!

Definitely change your major if you don't like what you've selected! Quite a few of my friends changed their majors when they were in college. It's not worth being miserable stuck with a major that you decided that you don't like. If you feel a calling towards something else, go with that instead. Normally when we go to college we're going to study something we want to use for the rest of our lives, so pick the thing that you think you'd get the most benefit and joy out of instead of staying miserable. When you change majors, if you've taken enough classes you might have enough credits to earn a minor in the original program, but that's not always the case. Some of the credits may count for your elective or general education requirements too, but again it depends on the program.

It's definitely okay to change your mind! I know a lot of people who have done this and it's fine. Sometimes you think you know what you want but when you try it you realise it's not for you. It's better to make the decision to change so that you can do something you enjoy rather than regret your decision later on.
