Because in my college, more than half the curriculum for both degrees is the same, I figure. I asked my academic advisor about it.

He said he never heard of someone majoring in BA and BS in the same subject. He'll look into it for me. But I'm thinking I can't get two different degrees for the same subject.

The subjects are either BA or BSc, sometimes the categorisation is nonsensical but it is still singular.

I don't think I get it, are you asking if you can get two degrees, a BA and a BSc by taking the same classes? Because obviously no

Sure you can, as long as you take the required classes and apply for graduation

You cannot get the same degree twice. Colleges are not allowed. In a majority of cases a BA and BS are just the same crap so I am sure colleges wouldnt allow it.

Just get a Masters or an Associate's degree of some very related field/courses

Some majors have a BA or BS classification but, at the end of the day, a BA and a BS are basically the same thing although culturally a BS looks more prestigious because of all the BA jokes.

While it might be possible to get a BA and a BS in the same subject, it doesn't seem terribly useful for a double major and would be a little confusing on your resume.
