CS requires about 14 courses. Spanish option D requires 13 courses if you already know Spanish (and therefore do not have to take the introductory Spanish language courses). Then you have 2 courses for L&S reading and composition, and 4 out of the 7-course breadth not covered by the majors (make sure one is an American Cultures course if none of the major courses is). The total number of courses comes out to be 33.

Since this is only a slight overload compared to a typical 32 courses over 8 semesters, it is doable if you are motivated and schedule carefully. If you have AP credit for calculus, you may be able to subtract 1 or 2 math courses from the CS major requirements.
