Colleges and Universities A-Z Cornell University

<p>Well i am attending Cornell University this Fall and im in CALS and im Majoring in AEM. I know you can double major in any other major in CALS but im not interested in any of them. I really wanted to either major or minor in math. From what i heard you can only major and minor within your school. Is this true? Is it possible for me to major or minor in majors of another school?</p>

<p>You can also major in Biometry and Statistics in CALS, which is essentially an applied math/stats major.</p>

<p>CALS students can do a minor in any college, as long a such a program exists and you receive the proper approval.</p>

<p>Even if no formal minor exists, you are usually more than welcome to take courses in the respective department.</p>
