College Major Match ServiceTM
The College Major Match Service is a unique way for colleges and universities to help boost student recruitment, grades, retention and graduation rates
Career Key does this by scientifically matching students' personality to majors - a crucial element in student success according to recent studies.
Research studies show that the closer students’ personality matches their major, the more likely they are to get better grades, stick with their college major, and graduate on time.
A study by ACT® scientists found that this match predicted overall GPA after five years better than ACT scores!.1
