<p>I'll preface this by saying I am not in graduate school, as of yet. I haven't even graduated high school. But I'm getting ready to think of my majors and what I want to study ('tis the season), and I'd appreciate any help you guys will offer.</p>
<p>I'm in the International Baccalaureate Diploma program, and so far, I'm doing very well. However, even if I suddenly tank all my tests, my school will still verify (I don't know the technical jargon is...) my GPA, which at the moment seems to be 3.74 (unweighted).</p>
<p>On to the dilemma:
My parents would rather I not study abroad (as in, USA, UK, etc.) but rather choose somewhere close to home. As they are paying for college, I was rational and fully understood that. I choose the American University of Sharjah (in the UAE), which will accept my IB diploma and give me course credit for some classes.</p>
<p>However, this university is being very unclear about its Double Major policies. At first, I wanted to study English Literature and Anthropology (double major). Now, I see that they don't have Anthropology, and the closest thing to is that they offer is History. But only as a minor :/. I sent them an email 4 days ago asking if I could take History at a 'major' level, but no answer yet. </p>
<p>Here is one of my many questions:
1. Can I study History at a minor level but then get a Master's in it?
2. Can I study History as a minor, but then get a Master's in Anthropology?
3. Do you have any help/advice you can give me about my major(s) (or a major, and a minor)?</p>
<p>Thank you, and any help would be truly appreciated!</p>
