Double Major in Music Education and Theatre, but what degrees should I choose?

<p>The hidden issue with double majors is that this usually means you will be in school for more than 4 years, to be able to complete all the coursework you need for both degrees. Expect to be in undergraduate studies for anywhere from 4 1/2 to 6 years. Plus, you are looking at two majors that are fairly time-intensive, both requiring significant “your body needs to be here” commitment.</p>

<p>A better strategy may be to go for one degree as an undergrad, then go back and get your other degree as a graduate student. A master’s in education is more marketable, IMHO, than a bachelor’s. You will come out with a stronger degree package, without much more investment of time or money than if you had done a double bacheor’s.</p>
