Answer 1

It depends entirely on the school you're in -- in some cases there will be no difference at all. If the school follows a traditional pattern of degree naming (they all don't follow the traditional pattern)

A Bachelor of Fine arts is a studio art degree and is about creating your art, in this case Interior Design. There are a lot of classes about making your art and not as many classes about math and science etc... It's all about creating the art.

A Bachelor of Interior Design would be an applied professional degree. It would include art but also some business and some general education. It's mostly about the major though and you'd take a lot of Interior Design related classes. It's equally a bachelor's degree and an interior design degree.

A Bachelor of Science is an academic degree. It's really about the general education and the Interior Design is just a part of the overall degree but not as much the whole focus. In addition to some Interior Design, you'll take a bunch of math, science, history, English, etc... that you may say "what does this have to do with my career?" -- it's a Bachelor of Science first, about Interior Design second.

This is the traditional pattern though - some schools only offer a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Science and everything they do is in those patterns. Some, such as art schools only offer the Bachelor of Fine Arts. You just have to look over he degree requirements at each school.

You can expect though that a BA/BS will be heavy on general studies and that the BFA will be heavy on creating the art. That should help with your decision process.
