    Well it might help if you spell it right! The correct spelling is botany. There are many Universities that have biology departments but it seems to me botany is more specialized rather than generalized like biology is. I would find a college that has a Botany department. You can look on google.

    Here are some of them: U of Wisconsin, Madison.

    It initially appeared to me to offer some good courses but turns out to be a waste of time since the physics they make u take is calculus based, and they expect u to take some intermediate math classes such as one beyond calculus 1. I say forget that. Im not going to be a damn mathmetician.

    U of Madison thinks u arnt smart unless u have tons of math and physics well they can shove it you know where.


    U of Gainesville, Fl


    U of Florida is a great school and alot better climate than Wisconsin. They dont make u take math beyond calculus 1 and the physics u can choose if u want to do the easier one.

    Hey dude there is a lot of things u need to look into before just applying, such as maybe u can get some courses done at a community college which are requirements at the 4 year University that u plan to transfer to. You might as well take classes that are required at the 4 year college vs just taking classes u like or just that fulfill a requirement at your 2 year school and then you are stuck later on taking extra classes.


    University of Iowa has Botany, University of Tennessee.

    University of California, Riverside has a great school as well.


    U of Hawaii would be ideal but can u afford to live there?

    University of Hawaii prob would rank 2nd after Florida i would think. Who the hell wants to study botany in a place where the majority of the year its cold?

    Most evolution of new species takes place in the tropics.

    I always thought Humboldt was expensive for East Coasters.

    It's relatively inexpensive for local people or that eight state program on the West Coast.
