Q: What should my major be in college?

A: Specific courses are required for admission but not a specific major. As long as you take those required courses, major in anything that interests you. Most of our applicants major in animal health or biological sciences. For more information about those majors at the UGA, e-mail: discover@uga.edu. For information about other arts and sciences majors, visit the Franklin College Web site: www.franklin.uga.edu/students/index.htm. For information on all majors at UGA, visit the UGA Bulletin Web site: www.bulletin.uga.edu.
