<p>Hi there.
If you're a drama student at Tisch, is it possible to double major with, let's say, English or History?
Do you end up with 2 degrees?</p>
<p>Yes, it is possible, though difficult, to double major with a liberal arts subject like English or History if in Tisch Drama. It is a bit more doable to minor in second subject, but double majors are possible. I know those who have done it.</p>
<p>yeah… I was interested in the same thing. I just got into Tisch Musical theater and I want to do double major in computer science. So what happens? because i heard that there is a long studio block in the middle of the day… would they just give you my computer classes around my block?</p>
<p>They won’t just give you your computer classes around your block. The classes are held whenever the schedule says. If your have a conflict with your drama classes, you’re out of luck.</p>
<p>Studio is three full days/week. That’s from around 9AM - 6 PM. Plus there are theatre studies classes that you take on the other two days. I think it works out to about one class per semester for that. So you have to find whatever fits in the time that’s left. A class might fit in, but maybe the prerequisite is on a studio day. It’s difficult. Probably English and History would be easier than Computer Science. If you take courses in the summer, that would help you work in a double major.</p>
<p>I don’t think you end up with two degrees. You get a BFA from Tisch. CAS might have different requirements for a BA; can’t recall, but AP credits really help in fulfulling those Humanities and Science requirements.</p>
<p>I told my daughter to just take whatever interested her. Felt it was better for intellectual growth.</p>
