<p>I am a now junior in high school, and I love biology and chemistry. I am leaning towards a biology major in college. I have visited many colleges already because of my sister is a year older (and so she toured) and I fell in love with the LAC vibe. I would really love to attend one, but I want one that would be the best for biology.
I have a 4.532 cumulative GPA, and I take virtually the most rigorous schedule my high school offers.
So what are good LAC’s for biology?</p>
<p>Probably most have enough biology offerings to major in the subject (because biology is one of the most popular majors), but if you have interest in a specific subarea of biology (e.g. biochemistry, genetics, botany, zoology, etc.), then you may want to individually inspect the course offerings and faculty areas of interest at each school.</p>
<p>If you want to major in chemistry, take a look at the American Chemical Society’s list of approved degree programs. The list is pretty large, so it should not be too restrictive on your choices, although if you have specific subareas of interest, you may want to individually inspect the course offerings and faculty areas of interest at each school.</p>
<p>Try to avoid large amounts of student loan debt, because these majors do not have the best job and career prospects at the bachelor’s degree level.</p>
