Minors?

It is possible to double major with economics and music. But it is very difficult. Both the music and architecture schools are extremely demanding and make double majoring with anything else pretty tough.

That being said, if you come in with a lot of AP or trasnfer credit to make Distribution requirements nil or are willing to take an extra semester or two, you can accomplish it.

As far as minors, I’m pretty sure we don’t have one for music or economics at this time, so that option is out.

One option you might want to check in to is a BA in Music rather than a BM. I’m not exactly sure what the difference is, although I think a BA isn’t as much work, which may make it easier to double major with something outside Shepherd. I’m not sure about this though – check with Shepherd for more details. A lot of it probably depends on whether you’re a performance major or not.

Hope this helps.
