Stuck and don't know what to do. Advice appreciated. (Early Graduation)

Advice

So for context, I'm a 3rd year Bachelor of Commerce student at the University of Guelph, and I'm having some second thought about by degree.

I'm unable to find a co-op, and I'm not entirely sure what I should do. I'm feeling sick of school and wanting to graduate earlier. But also, I just hate my Major, and enjoy my Minor far more. (Marketing Major, Accounting Minor). I've already completed an 8-month accounting co-op.

Hate are my options:

Option 1: (Early Grad)

- Drop this upcoming Co-op term, take 4 Full time classes & a part time job (15-20 hours per week).

- Winter 2027 I will have to take 1 in person class with my Co-op.

- This Option allows me to graduate 1 semester early, in Fall 2027.

Option 2:

- Attempt to look for a Co-op throughout May, although there's no guarantee I'll find one, especially since the peak window for summer internships is over.

- Take 1 online class this summer with my co-op (if I get one)

- This Option will let me graduate in Winter 2028

I'm just feeling very lost and want to finish school already. I'm getting mixed responses from people around me, and I feel like I should go for the early graduation route.

Are there any factors that I could be missing before I make my decision?
