B.A is Bach. of the arts degree
B.S is Bach. of Science degree

Some schools give one some give the other .. sometimes it doesnt make a differents whether you are majoring in art or science .. it just depends on what the school offers ..

As for as i know it doesnt really make that much of a difference in the long run.

The short answer is that a BS will have more math as a requirement. Some majors either require, or just make more sense to have, a BA or a BS degree with. For example, one would usually have a BA if majoring in English Literature, but a BS if majoring in physics.

There's more to it than that, but that's the gist.

BA will often require a language, BS not so much.
