Yes, you can have 4 majors under comm/arts.

Yes, you can "accelerate" by overloading, which means taking more subjects per session than the normal load (which is 24 UOC). You'll only be permitted to undertake more than 27 UOC with special permission. I don't think you can do it in your first session though, I wouldn't suggest it anyway.

I know at usyd you can overload right away in uni if you do well in the HSC (99+) with permission from the faculty (I have a friend doing that for engg/commerce trying to finish in 4 years instead of 5). I'm not sure about UNSW, but you can definitely overload with permission after a couple semesters if you do well.
