Which colleges offer the most courses?

I know it's possible to know the number of majors a college offers but is there a way to figure out which colleges offer more class variety as well? I don't want to be limited in the courses I can take.

It's great that you are looking to have a vast array of courses to choose from in your college experience. This shows a keen interest in expanding your knowledge in diverse fields. Typically, larger universities will offer more courses due their high faculty count and the broad array of departments they maintain. However, the number of classes a college offers is not often a statistics they share publicly, which makes it slightly tricky to make direct comparisons.

I'd suggest researching universities with a large number of majors and departments, as this often correlates with a more extensive class catalog. Schools such as the University of Texas at Austin, Rutgers University, and Ohio State University are known for their large size and extensive course listings across a wide variety of disciplines.

Also, consider schools with an open curriculum, like Brown University or Amherst College. With fewer general education requirements, you're free to explore a more diverse range of courses.

Apart from this, many universities also allow cross-registration with nearby institutions, effectively broadening the course offerings. For example, students at the Claremont Colleges or the Five College Consortium in Massachusetts have access to classes at all member schools.

Before making a final decision, try to get hold of the course catalogues of the universities you're interested in – they're usually available online or upon request – and look at the variety and number of courses offered, particularly in your areas of interest.

A word of caution though: while variety is great, it's also essential to consider depth, especially in your major area(s) of interest. So ensure the program you're interested in has robust offerings, not just a breadth of general courses across many topics.
