The MyMajors self-assessment is a tool current or potential students can use to explore options or confirm the major or career they are considering. Students provide information about their aptitudes and respond to questions about their academic achievement, unique interests, and personal preferences. Once completed, they learn which majors, careers, and UW universities appear to be a good fit.
