I am currently in the International Baccaleareate Program so once I receive my diploma I will attend a college that will give me up to 30 credits, thereby allowing me to skip the first year...

Yes, it's all possible. It will take a while to do, but you can do it all at certain colleges (including the University of Florida, my school).

First, for the Masters in Business Admin. I'm currently in a Combined Degree Program that allows me to take graduate level courses in my undergraduate years and count them for my BSBA and MBA (if I score a B or higher in the courses). You can't simply go for the MBA, you have to get the undergrad degree first and then be accepted to the grad school once you get the undergrad degree.

As for the double major in Music, it is possible, but even if you're really good about taking a ton of classes (assuming 18 per semester) you'll probably spend 5 years pursuing the undergrad degrees (and combined degrees of course) plus the additional year of the rest of the graduate level classes you need for the MBA.

I entertained the thought of being a Combined Degree BSBA in DIS/MBA in DIS with a General Theatre major, but when I saw it would add two more years of courses to my collegiate experience, I thought better of it. I advise you to look at the degree requirements for each at the college you wish to attend (or have been accepted to) and then weigh the costs/benefits of the additional major. You may then do what I decided to do: turn the desired major into a minor and save the time and money for courses.

A Master of Business Administration is a graduate degree, so you don't start that until after you graduate (except at a few schools with a 3-2 program, which lets you start in your senior year. You could get a double major in business and music with a minor in French, but depending upon things like AP credits, it may take you more than four years to finish. Or you could just do the major in Music and the minor in French, then go on for the MBA.

Your major is a lot extra major except you're attending an Ivy league college. yet, as between the others observed, a random lib arts degree may no longer get you the perfect interest even if its from Harvard (in spite of the truth that you would in all likelihood have a much extra helpful probability at landing a writing/editor interest with a harvard english degree than one from a random state college.)

Yes, but you can't do them simultaneously. The first, the MBA, is a graduate degree, so you will have to wait until you complete your undergraduate work in music and French. You can take some business courses during your undergraduate which will help prepare you. Many colleges will allow you major in music and minor in French, or even double-major.

You can't get a Masters of Business Administration as an undergrad, or any master's. It's an advanced degree. You can do a bachelor's in business. You can obtain your bachelor's of Music and your French minor and then continue on to get your Master's.

This is possible if you go to the right school. but I think the major in music is not worth it. it likely won't help you in your job search as jobs in music do not require degrees. it will just cost you more money. think about joining a choir or band or take lessons if you still want to stay involved. I am paying back my college loans now and am regreting taking a double major,

Take a step at a time. All these things takes time.
If you are smart enough and could cope with it.
