<p>Does anyone know if there’s a list of colleges that allows Double (or more) Majors or Multiple Degrees?</p>

<p>Specifically, I want to know if all of the following offer Double Majors:</p>

<p>All UCs
CA University of Southern California
IA Grinnell College
MA Boston University
MD John Hopkins University
ME University of Minnesota – Twin Cities
MI University of Michigan
NY Colgate University
PA Carnegie Mellon University
WI University of Wisconsin – Madison
CA San Diego State University
MI Michigan State University</p>

<p>Also, on another note, which Penn State is the Penn State people usually refer to? There’s like a bijillion Penn States.</p>

<p>Multiple degrees is a more difficult question because some of those may be 5 year programs (a B.A. and a master’s in business or engineering, for example). Many colleges may allow double majoring but I have heard it discouraged by college professors and administrators, in part because you will spend so much time meeting the requirements for the two majors that you won’t be able to explore any other courses. Also note, though, that majors like environmental studies and international studies are combinations of disciplines anyway (international studies may be a regional focus plus a substantive focus like anthropology or history or literature), so those majors may be of interest depending what disciplines you want to combine.</p>

<p>^Not all colleges discourage double majoring. USC, for example, said on its website that it “encourages” its students to Double Major.</p>

<p>I simply have too many interests to limit myself to 1 major.</p>
