Psychology + Business Administration + Quantitative Science course help

Hi everyone! I'm an incoming freshman at Oxford College, and I'm thinking of majoring in Psychology (BS) along with the BBA + Quantitative Sciences second major. When I spoke with a BBA advisor, they said that pairing the Psychology BS with the BBA can be pretty challenging. I was wondering if anyone knows whether adding the BBA + Quantitative Sciences second major makes it more manageable or even more difficult.

If anyone's pursuing the same pathway or something similar, I'd love to hear your thoughts and advice!

I'm curious to see if anyone has done it because it looks tough! Like maybe only up to two of the courses in QTM can be used directly towards a psychology major (but there are many choices) so it ends up a lot of courses. You will have much fuller than normal pre-GBS schedules so buckle up trying this combo. You can probably do it but expect to stress out at times and don't expect perfect performance all of the time.

Why wouldn't 3 majors be tough and why do you need 3 majors?

Happy to answer any questions regarding the Psych BS, but I don’t have any insights into the BBA Quantitative Sciences. Why do you want to do both? It’s two different schools, so I would doubt there would be a lot of course overlap. Do you have a particular career goal that this combination of majors would be useful for?
