I was wondering if there are maybe courses you guys think a dedicated martial artist should study in college. Reason being I want to go to college but i have absolutely no major in mind.

I've always been a firm believer in doing something that you enjoy. If you don't, chances are you may not put 100% into it. So, the first question would be...what are you interested in?

Anatomy and physiology, kinesiology & psychology.

Go to college, take a few courses, figure out what you like best and go from there.
If you enjoy the subject, I think it's worthwhile. That being said..
I got a BA in Psychology and I can say that understanding the human mind surely helps me understand the martial arts in a new perspective.
While I strongly agree with MJS, I would add this advice I learned myself. In college, I loved MA & trained daily, but I planned to go into ministry. So, my choice for college was a degree in Biblical Studies. I also planned to go to seminary. While there was some time in between college & seminary, I had a degree that told most folks outside the church "this guy doesn't know how to do our business." That has been the perception of folks about my education.
I tell you that to say this: Get a degree in something you can make money doing & that you enjoy. Your passion may take you a while to attain & you need to support yourself in the meantime.
20 years after college, I do what I went to school for AND teach MA too.
All the best in your search to do what you love.
