Education Questions and Answers
Can you have a double major and a minor and still graduate from college in 4 years?
Question:When I go to college I want to have a double major in biochemistry and voice.
And I want to have a minor in finance.
If I do these things, could I still graduate from college in 4 years?
Answers:
Yes, you would just take all of your second major upper division classes as elective courses. When the time comes to pick your major and minor, you should talk to your academic counselor to make sure your particular school will allow it. But it is possible in some colleges.
Good luck!
Do you ever want time to yourself, and maybe do some homework?? I am sure it is possible if you are one of those types that can handle all that, but remember college is about having a LITTLE fun too, don't overload yourself!
Yes, all you have to do is take the courses required for a major in both as listed in the University Calender and then apply for your degree. You should speak to the Dean\heads of each Departmeht so they have you on their list when it comes to graduation time. It will likely mean you'll have to take an extra course each year to get the required classes that are not related to your majors or minors. (I was able to do it in four years) (Warning, the required Science and Math courses sometimes don't get enough attention because they don't apply to your majors. (I found finding time to study Calculus and Statistics was difficult and I had to take Calculus over again because it was a requirement). First year Geology is a good easy science course, just a moderate amount of memorization)
Also one good thing about having a double undergrad major is that it makes your two post grads of whatever subject you choose for your MA and Phd a lot easier.
