Transferring within NU/Dual degrees

<p>Just a quick question--I applied into NU's School of Education and Social Policy as a social policy major and I wanted to know how easily can you transfer to another school or double major in an area outside of your school? If accepted, I fully intend to stay a social policy major but at the same time, I think I want to double major (or minor) in econ or in journalism. (Think: Nicholas Kristof) I realize that Medill is amazing (which is kind of a good reason to take advantage of the opportunities right?) so would it be impossible to double major/minor in journalism? Any advice? :)</p>

<p>Medill classes have very strict enrollment so the school doesn’t take transfers easily.</p>

<p>You can easily double-major in SESP and econ (or another WCAS major).</p>

<p>To major in journalism you have to be enrolled in Medill. And while you can take journalism classes, no minor is offered. As Sam Lee mentions, if enrolled in SESP adding a WCAS minor or a second major (econ or otherwise) is very doable.</p>

<p>And while hard, its certainly doable to transfer into Medill. I know at least a couple people who have.</p>

<p>Don’t forget the Integrating Marketing Communications (IMC) certificate:</p>
