If I decide to double major at Stern, will I exceed the standard 128 credits for the Bachelor of Science degree?
This depends on the particular majors pursued (and other non-major elective credits earned). Since most majors entail only 12 credits, you can usually complete two majors and a minor within the standard 128 credits. There are a few majors, however, that require more than 12 credits. For example, any second major pursued in tandem with CPA Accounting would exceed 128 points. Students should consult the Stern Academic Bulletin and an academic adviser for more information on each prospective major.
