[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL. They don't let your freshman just switch majors, OP. You can't run that game, they are on to that one. Your kid could double major, or minor, but a double major requires departmental approval. Paperwork, signatures from department heads. There isn't a guarantee.[/quote] Yale does. You don’t have to declare a major until Junior year, although most do earlier. Only a few majors have separate admissions, such as art and architecture but not stem fields or engineering, and they happen sophomore year. [/quote] Yale doesn’t have highly ranked programs in the typically impacted majors like engineering and computer science. They’re trying to get more students into these majors rather than limit - Berkeley being probably the most extreme example with around 2% acceptance rate for computer science major. [/quote]
