It would help to have an idea of your D’s academic profile in order to suggest schools.

Perhaps your D could look into BA schools that offer both majors that are not by audition where you don’t necessarily apply directly into the major. Then she could double major or major in one and minor in the other.

I realize you said a university and not a LAC, but I’ll just put out there about Wesleyan, Vassar, Skidmore, Trinity, Muhlenberg, and Connecticut College.

For universities not by audition that she may be able to major in both areas or major in one and minor in the other: Univ. of Pennsylvania, Cornell, Duke, Brown, Tufts, Northwestern, Vanderbilt, WUSTL, Johns Hopkins, Georgetown, Emory, George Washington, UVA, William and Mary, Wake Forest.

American was a good suggestion made above too.
