Can I get a B.A. in classics and then my masters in Philosophy?

I'm new to the American education system and I've been wondering about this. Can you only get a masters degree in something that you've already received your Bachelors in?

What should I know about this hierarchy? What are professors like?

Thanks cuties

You will end up horribly unemployed or underemployed if you get these degrees. The best you will do will be to get a teaching job paying 35-45k a year, but being stuck with 100-200k in debt that you will never pay off

Never asked about employment man, money isn't really an issue

No, especially when it's within the same sphere of knowledge like two sciences or two humanities. Might be a little harder to apply to a science graduate program if you've done your bachelor's in women's studies, but even that is still possible if you have the ability to pass your classes.

I actually meant yes, not no, if you couldn't tell from the rest of the post.
It's been a long day and I'm tired

Professor writing here
Yes you can. In fact it's quite common. But you will have to explain why you want to switch fields. That need not be too hard - the two subjects you name do fit together in a logical way - but let the grad school see that you have a plan and aren't just switching randomly.

It depends on which college you are at and which programs will take the credits. Talk to your guidance counselor not these fuckheads
