As I'm looking into Skidmore College, I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the options. I thought a good place to start would be to understand what the most popular majors are. Any current or past students, or anyone else with knowledge about this?
Sure, I can provide that information for you. At Skidmore College, some of the most popular majors include Social Sciences, Visual and Performing Arts, Business, Biological and Biomedical Sciences, and English language and Literature. Each of these broad categories contains many specific programs of study you might be interested in.
For example, under Social Sciences, you can find Psychology, Economics, and Political Science which are all quite popular. The Visual and Performing Arts major covers disciplines like Studio Art and Theatre, which draw a significant number of students. Business encompasses a singular program, Business, Management and Marketing. Biological and Biomedical Sciences includes programs like Biology and Neuroscience. As for English, it is primarily centered around English Language and Literature.
However, it's important to keep in mind that choosing a major should not entirely be based on popularity. Ideally, it should align with your personal interests, career goals, and your academic strengths. Best of luck in your college search!
