What do you guys think of a double-major? Transfer capable?

<p>I'm really interested in a double major. I am transferring from a community college where I earned a dinky AA. Coming in as a junior... is it impossible to double major for those 2 years? Anyone thinking of saying longer to complete a double? (or do universities tend not to accepted transfer double major request?)</p>

<p>It depends on what you want to major in. Obviously, I doubt that you can double major in Math and Biology in 2 years.</p>

<p>You'll have to cram in a lot of upper division courses in 2 years. It's not impossible but it will take work. </p>

<p>Summer school may also be a requirement.</p>

<p>I am going to double major in Econ/Math after I transfer.
It's prolly not going to be that hard because I've taken several Math and Econ courses at my current college. I'll probably even have room to minor in a third area!</p>

<p>Im a math ane econ major as well here in Boston University.. It really isnt that difficult to major in both as math is econ are like bread and butter.</p>

<p>So, are there a lot of over-lapping math/econ classes that count toward both majors? I've noticed some schools have policies that allow overlapping classes for doubles--then others that are pretty strict against it.</p>

<p>Something like computer science and business would probably take a lot of extra work--yeah? I guess this would also depend on what classes actually make the transfer and if any of those would take care of some of the major's requirements.</p>

<p>oh and sorry for my sloppy original post. I swear, I am not retarded ;)</p>

<p>Some schools offer a program called math-econ, where you take a sufficient amount of courses from both fields. Leo- I noticed you are from San Diego. Are you considering UCSD? They offer math-econ.</p>

<p>Yeah, I was accepted at UCSD--for Econ (but I was originally thinkin' the management science route)... But now I am looking at other options, waiting for other transfer responses... we'll see.</p>

<p>I am more interested in a double major in business + other. However, i can see how a double major may be a bit too ambitious for transfer students. I guess it mainly depends if class-overlap count toward the double or not.</p>
