I’m looking for colleges that offer a major in educational policy or a similar field. I’m really interested in studying education alongside government, but it seems like only a few schools offer this option. I found that UCSC has a major in Education, Democracy, and Justice, which aligns perfectly with my interests, but I’d love to hear about other backup options too (thanks to the uncertainty of UC admissions!). Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
