I can't think of too many universities that offer forensic psychology at the undergraduate level except John Jay in New York, which is a well-known criminal justice school. It is something that is more offered at graduate level because it's a special branch of psychology. You may want to consider majoring in psychology and minoring in criminal justice or maybe even incorporating some social science classes such as deviant behavior and juvenile delinquency.

If you are interested in criminal or forensic psychology because you want to be a criminal profiler, you may want to do a quick job search first. I am not trying to disappoint you but you can't just get a job as a profiler. The only profilers I know of work for the FBI and they are all special agents.

You're not going to get a school that offers criminal psychology (unless it's a specialized one). Most schools, you can major in psychology and focus your studies towards abnormal psychology, and then perhaps as a graduate degree you could turn your attentions more towards it. As an undergraduate degree, you're going to have to focus on all branches of psychology, not just abnormal/criminal
