Taking same classes again?

Question

I was wondering, I'm taking basic courses for my major. But I want to go back to school few years later after I graduate and change my major.

What if I'm taking the same basic courses for the other major, I already took those basic courses, does that mean it's different major so I have to take it again?

Answer 1

When you want to take another major, the best thing to do is to take it at the same time (double major) so you graduate with both majors. But if you decided to attend the school after you graduated (especially different school) most of them will require the last 30 credits to be on campus. You can’t attend school and only take 2 or 3 classes and expect to be graduated from their school (except if it is the same school you graduated from before). So, if you didn’t graduated yet, the best thing is to take the second major courses while you are still there and most majors will have same general courses so you will not need to take them again

Answer 2

nah the same basic course like bio,basic math, things of that nature are refered to as you "core classes" they are the same in every major so those credits should pass on. Therefore the only classes that you have to take are those refering to your major.

Answer 3

There are a certain number of hours that you have to take in order to earn a second degree. I'm not sure on the exact number (of course it will be less than your first degree), but I know you won't have to take the same classes again.
