<p>I'm intrested in a number of majors and I've decided the only way I can feed my thirst for studying a wide range of subjects would be enrolling in a double-major program.
I also want to (HOPEFULLY) attend an Ivy League university but I have no idea which ones offer double majors.
so...which ones do?</p>
<p>I know Princeton doesn't offer double majors for a fact. Cornell and Penn offer double majors. I am not sure about the rest of them.</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure all except Princeton do.</p>
<p>Brown doesn't have 'majors' per se, but you can double concentrate (which might require a lot of double-thinking)</p>
<p>Harvard does. In fact, you don't apply to the engineering school going into freshman year IIRC. You apply after.</p>
<p>Princeton does NOT. They have minors, but no double majors.</p>
<p>Yale does. Quite a few students double-major.</p>

<p>The part about minors must have changed since my day, when they didn't exist. Then again, my day was a long time ago. ;)</p>
<p>I just looked on the Princeton website and see no mention of minors - are you sure about this? You can receive a certificate of proficiency in a particular area that relates to your major, but that's different from a minor.</p>

<p>Certificate=minor at schools that don't offer minors to me. :p</p>
<p>Princeton also doesn't have majors per se. They have concentrations. But yes, I could have been more precise.</p>
<p>Coulmbia does and it also offers joint majors such as political science-economics. So youd be studying two subjects while still having one major.</p>

<p>Actually, they're two different things. A minor can be in a subject totally unrelated to your major; a certificate is almost always in a sub-field of your major. But yes, I understand what you meant.</p>

<p>I know, I wasn't being precise enough. Please forgive me. </p>
<p>I was checking the concentration/certificate list for Princeton a while ago, and IIRC, math was only offered as a certificate. Do you know if you can concentrate in mathematics?</p>
<p>Also, related to the OP, some schools have interdisciplinary majors. Like PPE: Politics, Philosophy, and Economics (the two PPs are sometimes in a different order). Even if a school doesn't let you double-major, they may offer majors like that. Others let you design your own major.</p>

<p>Oh, absolutely. Princeton has one of the best math departments in the country: Department</a> of Mathematics.</p>
<p>^Oh, I know! Actually, it was the reverse, now that I think about it. Can you get a CERTIFICATE in mathematics? I don't remember seeing one, but I'm not sure. Studying under Andrew Wiles would be unbelievable.</p>
<p>I have a friend who was accepted and visited, she was like four feet away from him (but didn't talk to him -- gah!).</p>
<p>You can get a certificate in Applied and Computational Mathematics or Applications of Computing, but not in Math itself.</p>
<p>^That's what I thought. Thanks for clearing that up.</p>
