Check the ease of doing these two majors BEFORE your child applies or enrolls. My DD wanted to do a MINOR in music with her engineering degree and could NOT fit in the required courses.

The programs designed to combine these two majors (e.g. the Hopkins/Peabody program) are well suited to this but very competitive. When DS applied to Peabody (not as a double major)…they accepted only a handful of students into this program. My recollection is that it was a FIVE year program.
