[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD would like to attend UVA and is not sure about her major but is leaning towards the BS in science in the department of engineering. More than anything she just wants to get into UVA. Would it be safer for her to just apply to the college of Arts & Sciences or is there no extra risk in applying to engineering because if rejected they could still offer general admittance to the university? [/quote] I've been told that UVA's A&S is the more selective school. Their Eng. programs are not ranked as high. Your DD would have better odds of getting in the Eng. school vs. A&S. I'm sure she could apply to switch out of Eng. to A&S after she gets in.[/quote] Engineering undergrads have higher standardized test scores than A&S by some margin.[/quote]
