With careful planning and early consultation with advisors,
it is possible for a student to complete the requirements for
bachelor’s degree with a primary and a secondary major.
The primary major determines the degree awarded, therefore a
student with a primary major in Environmental Science and a
secondary major in American Studies will receive a Bachelor
of Science degree with both the primary and secondary degree
listed on the diploma and official transcript. A student with
a primary major in American Studies and a secondary major in
Environmental Science will receive a Bachelor of Arts degree,
with both the primary and secondary degree listed on the diploma
and official transcript. Courses fulfilling the requirements
for the primary major may count to fulfill requirements of the
secondary major, but may not exceed one half of the credits
required in the secondary major.
Ramapo College residency requirements apply, as well, thus one
half of the requirements of both the primary and secondary major
must be completed at Ramapo College. Double majors are not permitted
within the Anisfield School of Business, except for
the Economics major. Some majors require specific residency
requirements noted in the description of the major. Particular
rules regarding School Core requirements for double majors are
outlined below:
Both primary and secondary major from the same School: School
Core requirements must be fulfilled.
Secondary major from the School of American and International
Studies: School core for the secondary major is not required.
Secondary major from the Anisfield School of Business
majors except International Business: ECON 101 and ECON 102
are required but not the remaining courses in the ASB Liberal
Arts core. If the secondary major is International Business,
both the School Core for the primary major and the
School Core for International Business are required.
Secondary major from the School of Contemporary Arts: Both the
School Core for the primary and the secondary major are required.
Secondary major from the School of Social Science and Human
Services: The School Core for the secondary major is not required.
Secondary major from the School of Theoretical and Applied Science:
