Double Major - Computer Science & Business. Possible?

Colleges and Universities A-Z The University of Texas at Austin

<p>I will be attending a Community College next semester as a Computer Science major. I want to transfer to UT Austin after I graduate from there. The thing is that I want a double major in Business.
I already planned the classes I would take in college, checking the transfer guides from each major.</p>

<p>I was admitted to UT Austin as a freshman, but I couldn't attend because of money issues, that is the reason I'm going to a Community College.
For this reason I feel a little bit more confident that I will be admitted again, after graduating. Of course, I would still have to make sure my GPA is high.</p>

<p>So, do you know if I can get into a double major if I have all the required courses for each of those majors?</p>

<p>I want to transfer directly to the double major. I think I read something about having to take 30 credits first at UT Austin to be considered for a double major, but in a transfer I'm not sure if it's the same thing.</p>

<p>Thank you very much.</p>

<p>I think you will have to spend at least one semester at UT before you can apply to be a double major.</p>

<p>My suggestion:</p>

<p>Earn a business certificate (which is basically a beefed up minor), then get an MBA. It will take probably 1 or 2 more semesters than double majoring, and you might have to work a couple years before getting into a good MBA school, but i will look 10000000000000000 times better than just a double major.</p>

<p>I was thinking about double majoring in finance. Would your suggestion be the same?</p>
