Depends on your long term goals. You can always double major. If you want to be a lawyer, you can major in anything. If you want to be a doctor you usually have to be pre-med, biology, or some other science background. It is always good to get a major or a minor in a field that can generate money on its own (like business, marketing) But college is what you make of it. If you want to study underwater basket weaving go ahead!

The simple answer is Computer Science.
In a recent article on Money.com it listed the Top 50 growing jobs markets...7 of 10 were computer jobs.
The pay is outstanding for first year starters in comparison to other fields.
One drawback may be that many others already know this secret, so it might be wise to consider a not so mainstream career - sort of a contrarian approach.
In that case, I'd like to suggest pharmacy. Tough study (latin words), long study (takes more that four years of schooling), but man does it pay! Six-figures starting pay usually AND many companies will sponsor some of your schooling costs! And no career field involved with health care is going to disappear!
For what it is worth...

We can't really tell you what to reccomend. You have to think about a job that interests you and if you do, it will make college life a lot easier instead of going for a major you have absolutely know nothing about just because the job pays good money. DO WHAT YOU LOVE

do what you love, but don't waste your time. liberal arts degress are a waste of time. you can learn that crap in your bedroom. do something that will give you a return for your investment. I am a cis major because I like computers and business and it is the best of both, but I would never major in something like accounting because I hate it. and I love history, but I wouldn't pay that kind of money to learn something I can learn by myself,.

You should add to your question with a brief outline of what you're good at and what interests you. You'll get better feedback that way.
