Hey guys,
I am thinking of going to university in America. Me and my family moved from England to Brazil back in 2005; I'm just finishing my high school education here and we are preparing to move to the US. I know there will be some issues in traducing my Brazilian high school certificate into something equivalent to a GPA/GED.
Anyways, I've seen alot of talk about double majors and minors.
I would like to study theology/Bible studies/Christian ministry, something that would prepare and encapacitate me for full-time ministry, but at the same time I'm very tempted to study something which would allow me to pursue a "secular" career should I need or wish to further down the line (something like International Relations, Government, or whatever set of courses one has to take to be eligible to go on and study Medicine or Law in the US).
At the moment I'm still very undecided, just doing my research and seeing what are the options.
I wonder, is it possible for me to take a double major in Theology, etc, and any other degree? Or are double majors only allowed in specific circumstances?
Also, how valuable are minors? For example, if I take a subject as a minor, would I then be able to study it at graduate level, or would my "minor" degree not be sufficient for that?
Thanks in advance
Josh
