The majors that require calculus are all mathematics, science, and engineering majors.

These include (but are not limited to) mathematics, mathematics education, science education, Biology, chemistry, physics, civil engineering, chemical engineering, biological engineering, electrical engineering, biochemistry, pharmeceuticals, and computer science.

So about 99% of students in those majors and related majors will take calculus their freshman year (typically the second semester). I say 99% because calculus is a prerequisite for all other courses in those majors (so it must be taken very early), but there is a very small possibility (I'd say 1% chance) that students can take calculus their sophomore year instead.
