I'm in full time and last week I had all of my classes for this year but now they're all gone. Did this happen to anyone else?

So, I just wanted to know how insane it would be to double major in Computer Science and Digital Media.

I'm about to start my senior year so I've got a while to decide but I just want to get an idea of what i want to do. I know it would be a lot of work but I'm really passionate and enjoy the programming and designing part of making games. I would love to just do the DM degree, but I know it doesn't have as much usability as a CS degree so I would have CS as a backup if I can't get in the game industry. I'm also aware that I would need to go between the main and orlando campuses, but, if it's even possible, I'd like to try to make my schedule have classes on one campus on specific days while the classes on the other campus are on the other days (Basically I wouldn't need to go to the other campus between classes since I'd only have classes at one campus each day). I'm also fine with doing it over 5 years if needed and doing classes over the summer if absolutely necessary.

I've taken 8 AICE classes, and by the end of this year I'll have 1 more plus 2 AP classes. I don't know how much of an impact they really have on my classes but they seem to get rid of half of my general education stuff.

My overall goal is to get a master's from FIEA. I feel like doing both majors would help me do better there and have more job opportunities once I'm done with college. I know that I would only really need one of these degrees to do FIEA but I'd still like to do both just to have the skills and be more versatile. I am aware that I could minor in one of them but I don't know how much that affects what I learn or how it would be looked at by employers. If I did CS as the minor, I know it's not looked at the same, would probably result in less opportunities, and i won't learn everything I'd need. If I did CS as the major, I'd learn everything for that but I'd probably miss out of the cool stuff I'd learn in DM. To be honest, minoring in one of them kind of seems not worth it to me since it isn't valued as highly and I'd be missing out on learning things. So unless those things aren't true, in which case I'd probably minor in DM, then I probably won't minor in either of them.

I honestly don't know what else to add but it would help me out a lot if I could get some insight and opinions on this. Especially if there's anyone in CS, DM, or even do both like I want to. I just haven't been able to find a ton of stuff that would be helpful so really anything would help.

TL;DR: Would it be feasible to double major in Computer Science and Digital Media (Game Design). I know it would be a lot of work and I'd have an insane schedule but it's something I'd loved to be able to do. I have some AICE and AP classes that count toward some of my requirements but I have no idea how much of an impact it really makes. I would like to eventually get a master's from FIEA and i know either would help me get in but I'd still like to have the skills from both if possible. I also don't really want to minor in one of them since, from what I've seen, they don't seem to be worth it. Unless those were wrong, in which case I'd gladly minor in Digital Media. Either way, I'd just like some thoughts and opinions from people doing either of those majors or even doing both to see if I'm insane or not.
