I’m want to look for good schools in the US that offer neurology as a major. Not exactly the top schools because my grades aren’t A+ and i’m not submitting sat scores either.

I have been looking at good schools for a neurology major and I think University of Pittsburgh is good. I like research and they have really good research programs. It is not too expensive and plus they have a high acceptance rate. It is always a good idea to think about getting an Associates degree (Basic classes for all undergraduates, 2 years) at a in-state college to ease into college life, meet new friends, and of course the cost would be lower. Once getting enough credits, you can transfer to a good school and it is easier to get in because you have more experience. Just wondering, what about Neurology interests you?
Answering your question, here are a couple of good (considering major only) colleges that have neurology (sort of competitive):
The University of Scranton - Pennsylvania
Rhodes College - Tennessee
Lawrence University - Wisconsin
Drake University - Iowa
St. Lawrence University - New York
Something important to remember when deciding majors is that different paths might lead you to the same place. If you want to be a neurologist; based off your major request, other majors (chem, physics, pre-med or adv. math) are also good to consider (all rigorous). The majority of good neuroscience schools require SAT/ACT scores and a high GPA. Do not get discouraged though! Hope this helps :)

Thank you so much! And I was first introduced to it by my friend in ninth grade and since then the idea of studying Neuroscience has interested me. I like how complex the brain is and how new the major itself is, every year there’s new discoveries and research done over the different neurological diseases as well as the nervous system . I’m interested in becoming a neuropathologist in the future
