An old roommate of mine from when I was a grad student in Math tried to get the Math Department to allow him to earn a Master's in Math with a Minor in English. The Math Department wouldn't let him do that.


I think I was lucky- my university was amazingly flexible. I also took French, Spanish, German and Physics! But i did extra modules and didn't get extra credit for a lot of it, it was more for interest and to have a full timetable. Creative Writing is a really flexible subject anyway though, you can make anything 'research' and go into as much detail as you want.


They didn't object to him taking extra courses in English, only to having English as a minor.


Yeah, my MA was in Creative Writing- we can't do majors and minors in UK, but I got to learn lots of other stuff as well. It's just not on my degree certificate or mark breakdown!
