Is it better to have two majors or multiple minors/immersions in college?

First of all, I would just like to say that I thought getting accepted into college would be my biggest hurdle during my college transfer process. However, now that acceptance letters have begun to roll in I'm finding that choosing the perfect school that best fits my needs is even harder! Although I know that I definitely want to major in Illustration there are so many other minors, immersions, or complementary majors that these schools offer that I feel would benefit my career in the long run; so FINALLY my question is, is it more beneficial to have two majors as opposed to having multiple minors or immersions? #college #college-major #choosing-a-major #academic-advising #majors #minors

Is there great value in pursuing a doule major or major/minor combination? Or is it better to naroow your focus early on andpursue only one major?

I have contemplated doing a combination of both business and medicine to pursue a positon hospital administration, and possibly a minor in music as that has been a major element of my life thus far. I am wondering if that is maybe taking on more work than it wll ultimately be worth. #college #college-major #double-major #academic-advising #business #medicine
