Double Major Possible?

I'm currently tossing up between UMelb, USyd and UNSW all for science and was wondering if with Melbourne you can do a double major as you have to do breath subjects. Also was wondering as I'm currently completing a Diploma in Business would that give me any credit as breath subjects as I've inquired at uni's before and they would count the credit.

Thanks

No you can't do a double major. As for credit, I'm not too sure about the specifics when it comes to someone who has already done a tertiary degree prior to the bachelor...

You can do the subjects for a double major but they won't put the two majors on your testamur, you have to pick one. All the subjects will be shown on your transcript if you apply for a job etc.
