[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Switch majors into the engineering or business schools would be hard to impossible. Switching into a major in the college of science is likely not that hard. But, if they are STEM focused, it would make more sense to apply to a possible major in the college of science or just "exploring science" (the "undecided" major). Admit rate for in-state for that major is 61%. [/quote] Why wouldn’t VT let her switch into engineering ? Isn’t VT desperate for more women in their engineering program? [/quote] In part bc the engineering schedule is rigid. Starting a semester late can throw off your whole trajectory & make you be at the university for an extra semester or 2 But also, plenty of women apply & are accepted to VT Engineering. Last available data is about 62% acceptance for women, 53% for men. So, there’s not a desperation for women https://udc.vt.edu/irdata/data/students/admission/index#college [/quote]
