BOLD Studies for Deciding Students
An Intentional Pathway that will Launch Your Career
Explore the possibilities at College of Saint Mary!
Choosing a major when you have multiple strengths, and there are numerous options can be a daunting task. Rather than beginning in one major, only to discover later that it is not the right fit, why not begin exploring with us?
The academic advisors in BOLD Studies for Deciding Students will help you identify interests, strengths, values, skills, and develop career goals. The combination of assessments, practical skill-building, dedicated time, and space to explore career options is an effective strategy for addressing major and career decision-making. Together, you will explore the possibilities at CSM and find the one that fits you and your goals best.
Our
BOLD
approach will empower you to
BELONG
to a cohort-based learning community;
OVERCOME
obstacles associated with managing multiple interests and career choice;
LEAD
to develop sought-after career skills; and
DECIDE
on a career path suited to your multiple talents. Your BOLD Studies team is ready to assist you as you make these important life decisions.

CSM’s Student Success Advisors Help Student Navigate College
Through the guidance and support of Haley's Student Success Advisor, Haley was able to find her passion and declare a major.
The Office of Student Success also helps students create a success plan, goal setting, and finances. They also check in frequently throughout the academic year, which Haley appreciates.
“It’s like having an extra voice to tell me everything is going to be OK,” Haley said. Haley chose CSM after visiting several colleges. None of the other colleges felt like home to her.
