Undeclared/Undecided Student Process at SUNY Corning Community College
1) APPLY NOW to SUNY Corning Community College.
2) If you indicated on your application to SUNY CCC that you are undecided, you will receive an email from the Career & Transfer Team with instructions to complete the Focus2 Interest Inventory. If you did not select Undecided/Undeclared, but are interested in exploring career and academic pathways, please email careers@corning-cc.edu.
- Focus2 guides users through a reliable, intuitive career and education decision-making model to help them select a major, explore occupations, make informed career decisions, and take action in their career development. While completing the Focus2 is not required, it is recommend to complete this prior to meeting with Career & Transfer Services.
3) Your next step is to schedule a meeting with the Career & Transfer Services Team to discuss what you hope to accomplish while at SUNY CCC and review your Focus2 results. We will work with you to select a degree program that keeps your options open if you remain unsure after completing the Focus2 and other career exploration tools. It is very important that you let your advisor know that you are still undecided or unsure about your pathway. We understand your pathway may change as you work more with your academic advisor. They will also be able to assist you moving forward!
- A meeting with Career and Transfer Services can take place in-person, over the telephone, or via video conference.
