<p>You could also major in mathematics or statistics or computer science with a minor in biology. Or you could major in biology with a minor in one of the above fields. I don’t know of any undergraduate majors in bioinformatics, and I don’t know any places you can major in biostatistics. Most biostats grad students majored in something else - a friend just got her DrPH in biostats and her undergrad major was chemistry. You just need to make sure you take the appropriate intro to intermediate classes in all of those fields.</p>
<p>Selectivity doesn’t matter as much as the best place for you. If you know you want to go to grad school, NCSU and UConn are both larger research universities where you can work on research projects in cutting edge labs with professors. But Wheaton, Lewis & Clark, and TCNJ are smaller liberal arts colleges; the research there will be less cutting-edge, but you can still get great experiences and you foster close relationships with professors and will likely have smaller classes. So it’s really up to you what your preference is.</p>
