The major that I plan on applying for is Bussiness Management/ administration. I plan on getting a bachelors/ masters degree in this. I have been thinking about what I want to do and it’s been a blur for me. For the longest time I have wanted to be in the education major. I have also wanted to be in the administration at the school like a counselor but Honestly i’m still thinking.

At CSUSM I would love to join the Surf club, and the bible study club because I think that it’s important to have that in your life. I would also try to see if i could get on the water polo team (not the division 1) but the club. I love that CSUSM is near the beach which is very important to me.
