One of the oldest and most renowned schools in the entire world, Hogwarts University has produced some of the greatest minds in wizarding history. Although they try to keep an open acceptance policy, there are thousands of applicants every year and the staff has no choice but to narrow it down to the few exceptional and passionate students. What makes Hogwarts outstanding is how quickly they adapt to the changing times as well as their emphasis on having a safe environment. They are highly accommodating to students with special needs or special abilities, as long as these students do not pose a direct uncontrollable threat towards themselves or others.

general curriculum
Depending on pre-requisites, educational and personal backgrounds as well as majors, students may have to take these classes or have the option to take these electives. The courses in the general curriculum are highly important and the school encourages students to take as many classes from this list.
— MUGGLE HISTORY
— MEDIA & TECHNOLOGY
— ENGLISH LITERATURE (Magical & Muggle)
— INTERSECTIONAL GEOGRAPHY (Students learn where magical and muggle establishments overlap as well as striving to understand how it is possible for these areas to function in both worlds, especially without drawing muggle attention.)
— INTERHUMAN RELATIONS (Understanding the struggle between the magical and non-magical community; similar to public relations as well as international relations.)
— DRIVER’S EDUCATION (Obtaining a muggle driver’s license)
— INTERNATIONAL STATUTE OF WIZARDING SECRECY: HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT (Mandatory for all students)
majors
The university offers an extensive list of majors that cover both magic and muggle studies, specializing in the amalgamation of both. Each major will have at least one class specializing on the muggle aspect of said major. Students may choose to double major, but it is ill-advised as the course loads are already quite heavy. Electives can also be taken from other majors. This is not a complete list, it only encompasses the more popular departments and the majors within them and is highly influenced by the local companies and job opportunities.
More often than not, majors act like Houses seen within the canon Harry Potter verse. For example, Slytherin Syndicates highly prefer to hire Business students while Gryffindor Group prefers students who synthesize both magical and muggle theory.

We understand not all characters will have been educated in the UK - Dumstrang and Beauxbatons are sister universities to Hogwarts, located in Norway and France respectively. Other wizarding colleges, like Salem Witches University in the states, are also part of our canon - feel free to make up your own University if none of the canonical ones fit your criteria. If you have any questions, please contact us and we’re happy to help.
