Can I do a double major in two different faculties? I want to combine a B.Sc. with a B.A. but from what I've researched, I don't think it's possible. Seems like major/minor is the only option. Anyone know this with certainty?

I applied for a faculty transfer this week. I don't know if it's going to work out, so I was wondering if I could apply to another faculty for another program, in addition to the first (for backup). Or can I only apply to one faculty?

Well, what are the two majors that you're planning to major in?

I'm also going to be double majoring starting this September at the new LA&PS faculty in Economics and Applied Mathematics. As you can see, economics is going to be from the LA&PS faculty while the applied maths is going to be from the Science and engineering faculty.

I have a similar problem... Can I combine majors from the Faculty of Heatlh and Faculty of Science & Engineering?

I would like a double-major in Sociology/Bio or Environmental Studies/Bio. My hopes are not high, though.

And how about the faculty transfer? I applied for Bio at Science/Engineering Faculty (wanting to move from Glendon Psych) but my chances are wobbly due to low high school science marks. So I would love to have something to fall back on, like Environmental Studies, where my chances of getting in are solid.

That said, can I apply to two different faculties, for two different programs, at the same time? That way, if either one rejects me, I can accept the other?
