Notes
a singular Major (as denoted by the student’s Academic Plan) is a fixed field that exists in the database. However, if the student is pursuing multiple majors simultaneously, there is no fixed field in the database that denotes that the student is a double major candidate, but in reality, because there is more than one major associated with the student, they are defined as a double major.
