If I'm starting off at a community college what would I need to major in?

I plan on transferring into a four year afterwards and majoring in either psychology or a major related to occupational therapy before grad school but while I'm at a community college I'm lost as to what I should major in there since many community colleges do not have majors like psychology or those fields unless its a senior college.

Thank you

Why not do Occupational Therapy Assistant? You could make pretty decent money while finishing your last two years, and you could attend a bridge program designed specifically for COTAs that want to become OTs. If it weren't for the fact that my boyfriend is playing football at college, I would've chosen this route myself.

I searched and I don't think they have bridge programs in the state I live in (NY) If they did I would maybe consider that route.

Ahhh, I see. Then I'd suggest something such as human development (which is what I'm majoring in). You'll take courses over the normal and abnormal development of humans throughout the lifespan, which I feel is highly related to OT!
