I really want to be a meteorologist but not a lot of colleges that offer it as a major. What should I do?
Many colleges offer meteorology. It is sometimes called atmospheric science.
What to do? Google “meteorology schools”.
I did but I couldn’t find many colleges that offered it
Looks like quite a few:
