Major Moment

At Trinity University, we’re made for big moments. And choosing a major is one of them. For more than 150 years, Trinity students have made this step on their academic journeys, driven by their unique interests to select academic paths that help them make a mark on the world.

Major Declaration Day is a new annual tradition at Trinity that celebrates the beginning of your academic journey, not the end: Your major might be your forever calling, or it also might just be where you’re discovering yourself right now. But for everyone, this is a major moment.
