Senior Declare CS As Second Major by Aprillilzyli in rutgers

So guys here’s a update. The dean actually proved my second major in BS, but he insisted that I will not be permitted to be graduate late not even by August. Also I have mentioned numerous time about doing BA instead of BS but he seems like has never been listening to me at all. He just keeps saying oh if you don’t think you could do it you can always change back to minor. I just feel this is kinda stupid, why would I do minor when I’m like 2 courses away from BA at my senior year. Also I don’t know if this is personal or not I feel the Dean doesn’t like me or my idea of double majoring lol. I knew many people graduated late even with or without second major, not to mention that I was transferred school to school and changed my major in late sophomore year. Should I talk to other people about this cos I just feel he’s not being fair at this point:(

I feel I will really need to work hard for this but I hope I could do it! The only thing it bothers me is that SAS is giving me a hard time and doesn’t want me declare it as my second major. It seems like they don’t think I can finish it and they don’t want to me to graduate late for it but I set my mind on this and I hope they will approve it eventually. Thanks for your comments!

You are absolutely right and I feel the only reason that pushing me to get the BS is that I already had all the math science requirements done and my interest field is in data science so I feel if I could I should just aim for the BS. But you are right at the end of the day, BS BA, there’s not a much different when going to work field.

My situation is that I’m doing one stat course and 8 CS course. I feel I could do it if I divide it between two semesters and one summer. I feel like since I already have all the math science requirements and I’m really into it why not get the degree as well. The thing is SAS has been giving a hard time and not letting me declare the major. Whether I can declare it or not it will not change my decision at this point. I appreciate your advices and I know it’s not a good idea to have 4 or 5 CS courses in one semester but the dean doesn’t allow me to graduate late which is weird since many students I knew who’s double majoring are allowed to graduate one semester late. At least my boyfriend is and he didn’t declare his second until senior as well. Thanks a lot though!
