Thank you for your question. Many students have similar question.. Different college have strength in different subjects. So, you better identify the careers you have interest first before look for the college.
Below are my suggestions:
1. Think about what you have interest, eg your hobbies, favourite subjects, etc and identify the related careers
Eg if you like music, would you like to be a musician, singer, musical artist, music composer, music producer, etc
If you have interest in maths, would you like to be an accountant, engineer, banker, financial analyst, maths teacher, etc
2. Find out more on these careers and determine what you have interest
3. Speak to someone who are working in these careers. Seek guidance from your mentor, school career counselor, your parents, etc
4. Shortlist 1-2 careers you would like to pursue. The relevant subjects of these careers will be the major and minor you can look for in the college
5. Explore the college review on these subjects and find out the entry criteria
Hope this helps! Good Luck l

It all comes down to finding the college that best aligns with your goals. What is the subject matter, hobbies, or careers that interest you the most? Once you've narrowed this down it's all about reseaching various colleges to see which ones have degrees that line up with what you want. Always be sure to keep your budget in mind when looking for colleges. Don't forget that online studies is always an option if moving out is too expensive. Lastly be sure to check what post-graduate aid the college may offer. This is a vital utility to have once you've graduate.
