The magnetic order resulting from an indirect exchange between magnetic moments provided by spin-polarized hole gas in the metallic phase of a GaMnAs double layer structure is studied via Monte Carlo simulation. The coupling mechanism involves a perturbative calculation in second order of the interaction between the magnetic moments and carriers (holes). We take into account a possible polarization of the hole gas due to the existence of an average magnetization in the magnetic layers, establishing, in this way, a self-consistency between the magnetic order and the electronic structure. That interaction leads to an internal ferromagnetic order inside each layer, and a parallel arrangement between their magnetizations, even in the case of thin layers. This fact is analyzed in terms of the inter- and intra-layer interactions.
