[quote=Anonymous]I think it really depends on the major. Some schools are strong all around and your kid will really be just fine if they switch from Engineerin to Business or Biology. Or from International Studies to History or English. I think where program matters more is for some of the more niche areas, like journalism or the arts or some of the health science specialties, even nursing. Some schools that may not be rated highly overall offer very strong program in some of these areas and I think would trump overall reputation. If your kid chose program over the overall ranking and changed majors and was still happy at the school, would it even really matter? [/quote]
