Variety in college degrees

Hey all! I've been thinking about my major a lot recently and I'm wondering, what colleges have the most diverse range of degree programs? Like, where can I find the most variety if I decide I want to switch up my path?

If you're looking for colleges with a diverse range of degree programs, there are several universities known for their breadth of offerings.

The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) is a great example. UCLA has an extensive catalog of majors, from aerospace engineering to Near Eastern languages and culture. With nearly 130 undergraduate majors and more than 90 minors, you're likely to find courses that align with nearly any area of interest. UCLA's diverse degree offerings span across the College of Letters and Sciences, School of the Arts and Architecture, School of Music, and the School of Theater, Film, and Television.

Another institution offering a wide array of degree programs is the University of Michigan. UMich offers approximately 250 degree programs across 19 schools and colleges, including the College of Engineering, School of Music, Theatre & Dance, and Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy. This broad variety of programs allows you to explore different fields before settling on a major.

Ohio State University also offers a large number of majors - nearly 200 in areas as diverse as dance, agribusiness, and aerospace engineering. They also provide pre-professional programs for students interested in fields like veterinary medicine or law.

Choosing a college with a broad range of programs is a great move if you're undecided about your major or considering changing your path. Just be mindful of the school's advising support and how easy it is to switch majors, as policies can vary!
