Jerome’s Answer
I was able to double major and am happy I did so. My first Bachelors was in Psychology and the second was in the Philosophy of Religion. I definitely think it impressed people when I applied for jobs and is a fund Anecdote while networking, but it also hasn’t significantly impacted my yearly earnings to be honest.
If you have a reason to do it that makes sense, go for it, but if you are doing it just for fun, I might encourage you against it.

Hi Nusrat,
It's certainly possible! Here's some things I would think through while making that decision:
- How much might major A help you in your career? How much might major B help you? How much more would major A and B together help you?
- How much longer would you need to be in school for to complete two majors vs one? Do you have financial constraints? Would you need to overload courses to finish two majors in the same timeframe?

Thank you for the advice.
