›› Why I chose the College of Liberal Arts

  Anna Tsui, Economics Major
  Like many students, when I first enrolled at UMass Boston, I not only didn’t know what subject I wanted to major in but at the same time I also wanted to major in everything. I spoke to a lot of people and realized that the College of Liberal Arts would offer me the best opportunity at a well-rounded education as well as the most flexibility in terms of career choice. Currently I am majoring in Economics which will be beneficial to me in many fields, whether I choose to pursue a life in business or social work.
