[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Note that university in the UK is 3 years not 4 and there are no real electives--you study just what's in your major, and you can't easily switch majors. So it's definitely not for everyone.[/quote] No….England….In Scotland it is 4 years and there are plenty of electives. And you do have a LITTLE bit of flexibility to potentially change majors in end of year 1 or 2.[/quote] Changing majors after matriculation is uncommon in Scotland, and is done by a request, which the University is free to deny. So do not count on this. It might happen in adjacent degrees. Contrived example might be a Physics student changing to Maths, because Physics already will require a lot of Maths and student likely also met admissions requirements for Maths. By contrast, a History student changing to CS is fairly unlikely to be approved. They are not adjacent fields and likely have different admissions requirements. [/quote]
