[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS is still trying to get over the shock of getting into both incredible schools. Commitment deadline is coming soon, and while the decision is his entirely, I was curious to see what insight people might give.

DS has flip-flopped between engineering and liberal arts for over a year now. If he goes to Columbia, he'll do engineering for sure (with a minor in humanities, probably). If he goes to Harvard, everything's up in the air.

Costs are very similar.[/quote]

Is it not hard to complete engineering degree in time if you don't start out on that path.  How does he do engineering degree at harvard if he does not declare it going in?[/quote]

Columbia SEAS includes the core.  If your kid changes his mind, he can easily transfer to Columbia College.  Not sure how that works at H. [/quote]

Everyone at Harvard attends the college. SEAS is within that and you decide sophomore year what you want to do. It’s very easy to change your mind. [/quote]

For engineering, you need to plot courses from Day 1.  That's not true at H?
