opinions on double,triple, even quadruple majoring

<p>people from the class of 2008/9 from my high school are supposedly double, triple, and (one is) quadruple majoring. </p>

<p>just wondering what your personal opinions are in terms of pursing multiple majors.
oh & if you have any stories from personal experience, or if you know of students doing this, please share. </p>

<p>thanks!</p>

<p>ps what schools actually permit this?
the ones from my high school attend BU</p>

<p>Most colleges have maximum unit caps, but I guess it is possible to petition it.
In most cases a triple major or quadruple major would be a complete waste of money and time. Skills gained in one major can carry over to another making it pointless in doing more majors unless you need a GPA booster, but that would not really matter much for graduate school admissions. If you want more majors on your credentials, you should go get more majors in graduate schools instead of waste so much time and money in undergraduate.</p>
