Double Major - Acting/Writing

<p>A good many colleges will permit you to double major in these areas. In your case, that would probably involve an English Major (creative writing courses as part of the major or possibly a subspecialty track in creative writing)+ a Drama or Theatre Major. Relatively few colleges will offer an integrated major that specifically combines both of your interests, but very likely some courses in one major might meet some of the requirements of the other major, e,g., a creative writing course in playwriting course in the English dept. may count as a theatre course, or a theatre history course in the theatre dept. may count as an English course. It is difficult to suggest possible colleges with knowing your academic stats, financial considerations, and your personal preferences as to the possible “fit” (e.g., large vs. small, urban vs. rural vs. suburban, etc.) of particular colleges. Some schools with strengths in your areas of interest include Emory, Northwestern, Minnesota, Yale and there are probably many others.</p>
