Hi there! It's great that you're looking into colleges with strong health-related programs. I'll list a few schools below that are known for their programs in health sciences, public health, and other related fields. Keep in mind that the "best" college for health-related majors will depend on your specific interests, goals, and geographical preferences.

1. Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore, MD): Known for its top-notch public health and pre-med programs. It houses the Bloomberg School of Public Health, one of the leading public health schools in the US.

2. University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (Chapel Hill, NC): The Gillings School of Global Public Health at UNC-Chapel Hill is highly regarded, and the university offers an excellent pre-med program for those interested in becoming physicians.

3. University of Michigan (Ann Arbor, MI): Known for its School of Public Health, it offers undergraduate degrees in Public Health and multiple graduate programs in health-related fields.

4. Emory University (Atlanta, GA): The Rollins School of Public Health is known for research opportunities and excellent programs in public health. Emory is also close to the CDC headquarters, providing additional opportunities in health sciences.

5. University of California, Los Angeles (Los Angeles, CA): UCLA’s Fielding School of Public Health offers undergraduate public health programs and graduate degrees in diverse fields related to health sciences.

6. Boston University (Boston, MA): BU is home to both a School of Public Health and a highly respected pre-med program, offering a range of health science and public health-related degrees.

These are just a few examples, but there are many more excellent colleges for health-related majors across the country. When researching, consider factors such as research opportunities, faculty expertise, internships, and connections to hospitals, research centers, or public health agencies. Also, be sure to visit the colleges' websites to learn more about their specific programs and resources.

Best of luck on your college search!
