I have never had trouble finding something that interests me in a field of study. The problem I have is chosing one to stick with. Psychology has always been very, very interesing to me, and I know there are many career opportunities to be had after grad school. But my heart has always been with English. I love reading, writing, analyzing, and thinking critically. I’m a freshman at the University at Buffalo currently as a Psych major but I don’t think that I can pick one without the other and be truly happy. Is it possible to enter grad school for psych with a BA in English, or does it have to be psych? My ideal situation would be an English major with a minor in philosophy and some coursework in Psych and then go on to graduate school for psychology. Is this possible?

I’ll obtain my Bachelor’s at the end of the Fall 10 semester. I’m hoping to enroll in grad school the following semester. Should I wait?
