Question About Double Majoring?

I have a question on double majoring?

  • I am approaching the end of my sophomore year in high school and am starting to look into colleges. I want major in Education, but I am also really interested in photography, so I would also like to major in that. How much extra time will I need to spend in college if I choose to do this? And what do you think about the workload?

  • Answer:

    Double majors don't necessarily take extra time; if you plan when you'll take your classes carefully and not just take random classes for a year or two, you can still graduate in 4 years, especially since neither of those are considered very demanding majors. Since it's really no extra classes, the workload is the same as a single major and other classes instead of the classes for photography.

If you start off your freshman year of college with a lot of college credits from AP/IB exams/dual enrollment from high school, you can be quite set to double major in 4 years. However, I'm pretty certain that the classes for the education degree will not overlap with the classes needed for the photography degree. For example, if someone is double majoring in math and statistics, and they need to take calc 1, 2, and 3 for both those majors, then taking each of those classes only once will count for both degrees. Education and photography are so subjects so unrelated that you won't be able to do that (most likely). You also have to be aware that your last semester of college (usually spring semester during your senior year) you will most likely be doing an internship in a school as most education majors have to do to fulfill their degree requirements. This internship is kinda like a full time job as a teacher for a semester. Because of this, you have to make sure that you take all of your required classes before your last semester if you want to graduate in 4 years. Also, doing summer school for a couple of years can help a lot in doing a double major.
