Schools and Majors

GW’s 87 undergraduate majors are found within our six academic schools and colleges. While each student enrolls in one school they have the flexibility to take classes, double major, and minor across the University’s academic divisions. Students in good standing may also have the opportunity to transfer between the schools and colleges should their academic goals change. The University Bulletin provides further details about the options students may pursue.
