<p>So I plan on majoring in microbiology but the school i plan to apply to only has biology and cellular and molecular biology. which one is closer to microbiology?</p>
<p>Depends on the requirements of each major. Look at them, and see which major will allow you to take microbiology courses to fulfill the requirements. Likely, both of them allow you to take a couple of microbiology courses as elective classes.</p>
