You can have both in the resume when you graduate at the same time for one graduation/residency waiver/cornerstone fee...the only catch is to graduate/finish requirements at the same time.Could you please elaborate a little more on how this double degree process works? Can the same credits be used to fulfill the requirements for two degrees? Are there common subjects for BSBA & BA-Psych.? And do we work on two different capstone projects? How much in excess would I be paying if I opted for the BSBA degree as well?
If you just want one of the degrees, guess what, you can get exactly 90 credits from the BSBA transferred into your BA Psych, or vice versa, the other way around, haha... it just depends what courses you take. You can prolong your decision by taking the exact courses required. But my suggestion is, do both as the BSBA is the cheapest/easiest/fastest ACBSP accredited degree!
If I was younger like my cousin, I would have gone with two degrees at the same time, especially when it would cost $1098 for the capstone, $200/2 Study.com courses, $70/extra Study.com exam. 5 Study.com courses would equate to $410 and in total, that second degree would be roughly $1500 (that is if the requirements can all be matched with Study.com, I haven't fully looked into it yet)!
