<p>I am currently a Comm student at a state university. 3 more semesters plus a summer/winter course or two and I will have my BS. The issue is, I want to also get an undergrad Eng. degree (and then on to my Masters in Acoustical Engineering, but that's somewhat beside the point of this thread) which my state uni does not offer. I want to begin taking physics/Engg. courses ASAP while simultaneously fulfilling my Comm degree req's. Now, I have to see how many credits will transfer to whatever school I decide to go for Engineering, but I guess my question is, should I just complete my Comm degree at my current university, then begin working on my Engg. degree somewhere else? or try to transfer to a school that offer Engg. now, and complete both my Comm & Engg. degrees there? Any advice at all would be helpful.</p>
<p>I’m working on my second bachelors. My advice is to NOT graduate. You will not be eligible for grants or scholarships on a second bachelors and that’s the situation I got stuck with. I was able to apply all my previous credits for gen ed requirements and am trying to finish a 4 year engineering program in 3 years just to get out quicker and stop paying full tuition and fees!</p>
<p>Def don’t graduate. It is easier and less pain in the long run to accomplish dual degrees at your current institution. Look in your college catalog and look up the requirements for dual degrees. You might have to be formally admitted into your college of engineering first before they can grant you a degree. </p>
<p>Shouldn’t be hard. After a semester or 2 of engineering classes (calc, physics, etc…) they will usually give you degree seeking status as long as you keep a decent g.p.a. </p>
<p>good luck</p>
