Hi Elizabeth!
You just need to understand what is required for your new chosen career, how long years and what kind of of study you need.
I have changed my career from Hotel Management to Business Administration. I made this switch after 1 year of work while managing restaurant.There was two strong aspects to making this a success.
1. Learn what the skills are to succeed in the industry.
2. Build a showcase/portfolio of those skills.
If you want to switch to some other stream, be careful what you choose. Because you'll be competing with those who will already have a sound knowledge of that field. Point I want to make is don't follow the herd. If you want to switch, you should be looking for fields that you can excel.

Hi Elizabeth! When I was in college, I was studying Business Administration with a concentration in Finance. I absolutely hated finance but I felt that it was too late for me to switch my concentration to another one, and that I would have to start over if I did. So I continued to take the financial classes and graduated. I then applied to many financial roles for 8 months and didn't see anything I saw myself doing. I then came across a staffing agency firm and learned the ropes in Recruiting... that's when I was introduced to Talent Acquisition! I had no clue what this was but I took my chances. I am so thankful I made the switch because this is exactly what I enjoy doing most -- working with people to find their dream job. So to answer your question, yes, you are able to switch career paths at or even after college. I hope this answers your question, let me know if you'd like for me to clarify or to share more! :)

This is an interesting question. This depends on a lot of factors. Different people choose the subject college having different reasons, e.g. interest n the subject, career path, can make more money, etc.
In some circumstances, people choose the subject because of the interest on the subject but they find that the job is different from the expectation after leaving the school. Interest of the subject does not mean that they would also like the job. They may change to another career.
In another way, people choose the subject because of the good career path or can make more money, they may change the career since this may not be their real interest.
I suggest you to start with the subject you have real interest first. Hope this help!
