Disability Studies is about average in terms of popularity for degree programs. That is, it ranks #899 out of the 1506 majors across the country that we analyze each year. So, it might take a little more work to find colleges and universities that offer the degree program.
There was only one school in the United States to review for the 2025 Best Disability Studies Schools ranking.
The disability studies school you choose to invest your time and money in matters. To help you make the decision that is right for you, we've developed a number of major-specific rankings, including this list of the Best Disability Studies Schools.
