Is it possible to have a major and a double minor?
Answered

I plan on taking a major and a minor, but there is another minor that could be very beneficial to me. Is it possible to have 1 major and two minors? Or should I just make sure to take the classes related to the minor?

Hi @ahowa!

It depends on the college, but getting a major and a double minor is very much possible. However, you might need to go beyond 120 credits (the usual graduation requirement in most colleges) and it might take you longer to graduate.

Hope this helps!
