I am quite sure it would have both. It is one of the biggest and best University's in America.

Me in a flash if you pay for me.

So my impression now is that double degrees are only for those who intend to be flexible, or wants a profession that stands a line between two fields(like the legal consultant for a company given as an example). If you totally want to dedicate to one field, the other is degree is useless right?

Not every degree needs to have a career attached to it... I, along with many others, decided to take a double degree for the simple reason that I would enjoy the topics on offer from the second degree. The generic skills mentioned by Lexicographer are also valuable, too.

I see, combined law degrees looks like a very good option
Is there any triple degrees?

PS. Just out of interest, how much is the fees for a Harvard law degree?

why?
and is arts the painting-crayon drawing-scrupturing arts?

 

[rukawasan]

nope... arts is languages, histories, english, politics etc...

 

[Wohzazz]

sounds to me arts is for the literarily skilled. must be a lot of essay work, research and public speaking

That is like four times as much as we pay:jaw:!

EDIT: How long are their law degrees?

 

[rukawasan]

yups... dats only for ur education... u also gotta have money for living expenses... rent food books toiltries etc... lol... n america's not cheap...

 

[Xayma]

Americas system is basically student pays all, financial aid is pretty easy to get but it is still very expensive thats why most parents start a college fund from a very young age. 3 year post-graduate course

 

[Wohzazz]

i doubt you can pay for that with casual work in America...plus where does the study time come? i guess we those not so rich people will only have to continue dreaming

 

[SoCal]

Oh, well if I can become an actor over in America and crack the big time, I won't even need to go to University.

You wont pay for the course with casual work, you go into massive debt for your first degree. Harvard Law is a post graduate meaning you should have money from a carrer anyway.

Oh, I didn't know they didn't offer undergraduate degrees.

 

[Xayma]

Harvard does, but their Law and Medicine degrees are post graduate.

Wouldn't a law degree be too much to handle in Harvard? Merethrond what are you doing atm?
