[quote=Anonymous]Cornell parent here, weighing in just to say that you/your DC really needs to drill down on varying requirements between Engineering and A&S and how realistic it would be to explore A&S with possibility of transferring to engineering.  Engineering on its own is a very hard degree in terms of the numbers and types of credits/classes required, and while some classes might count for graduation at both schools, the engineering requirements diverge from A&S in many respects.  For example, most A&S students have to take 2 freshman writing seminars, while engineers don't.  A&S students have a world languages requirement, while engineers don't.  And of course distribution/major requirements differ as well.  And A&S (and presumably engineering) has a minimum number of credits you need to take in your home college to graduate.  It's hard to see how you could leave open the possibility of completing an engineering degree within 4 years while still moving toward completing A&S requirements for more than a semester or so, if that.
