Evidence of inefficient course-taking patterns at community colleges has spurred policy conversations about how to ensure effective course sequences. Structural reforms, like guided pathways, seek to reduce major switching as a means to streamline student course taking and eliminate unnecessary credits. By placing students into broad fields of study--called meta-majors--and encouraging persistence within that general field (where coursework narrows toward a specific program over time), community colleges may help students progress toward their desired degree. But how often do students leave that meta-major, and what predicts meta-major switching? We use national data to examine meta-major switching at community colleges. Our findings suggest that almost 40 percent of students switch between meta-majors (eight broad major fields, plus undecided) between their first and third years of college. We describe the varied destinations and predictors across origin meta-majors and consider implications for colleges as they seek to assess ongoing reforms.
