[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some universities require an application to the major - not just the school. For example within the school of Engineering, you may need to select Materials Engineering major[/quote] This. Particularly at large state schools many require you to apply by major and switching can be extremely challenging. An impacted major can be nearly impossible to switch into even for those kids who applied to the school undecided. And admission rates can be deceiving at some schools because while there may be a 45% admissions rate, for example, a computer science major it can be less than 5%. Also be wary that SLACs generally do not have any engineering offerings and even those that do it’s usually a general engineering degree and not, for example, mechanical engineering. [/quote]
