Business Administration and Management is the most popular college major. In a yearly study conducted by the “Princeton Review”, colleges are asked to give data regarding their academic offerings. Each college polled is asked which three majors have the highest undergraduate enrollment. With today’s fast-paced economy, it is no surprise that Business Administration is the number one choice and most popular major amongst hundreds of possible college majors.
Business majors usually find success in the field of their choice by working their way up the corporate ladder to become managers, executives, and vice-presidents of their companies. A business major receives focused training and education in accounting, marketing, finance, human resources, economics, and decision-making.
Since Business Administration and Management is the most popular major, chances are you know someone who is majoring in business. Growing up, they probably saved their weekly allowance instead of blowing it, or maybe they started their own lawn mowing business in grade school. Regardless, a business major is naturally good with money and finances and can always be counted on for advice regarding monetary issues.
“Princeton Review’s” top ten Majors of 2006:
- Business Administration and Management
- Psychology
- Elementary Education
- Biology
- Nursing
- Education
- English
- Communication
- Computer Science
- Political Science
* note that the popularity of these popular majors has nothing to do with the current job markets’ need for positions in their related fields.

Keep going on the list. What’s the 100 most popular?
A list of only 10 is almost useless.
