Accepted but now want to change majors?

Applying to College
1

<p>Hey everyone,</p>

<p>In the Fall I applied to 10 schools and I got into 9 of them. I applied under business, specifically Accounting for all of them although it would've been a much smarter idea for me to go in undeclared now that I realize I don't want to do Accounting. I want to major in Nursing which I'm aware is highly competitive, even as a male. I am seriously considering the following schools: UMass Boston, Lowell, and Amherst, Rutgers, Temple, and Adelphi. I was accepted to UMass Amherst under a sociology major (my secondary major choice. I didn't get into their business school because I had only taken 3 years of math in high school.) and Accounting for the rest. What should I do about this situation? I am especially concerned about Amherst because they do not allow transfers into the nursing major so I'm afraid I have already blown my shot. Is there anything I can do? Thanks!</p>

<p>Go to each school’s web site and search for “change major nursing” to find out what the procedure is and how difficult it will be.</p>

<p>Get in touch with the admissions offices at the schools ASAP and ask if it is not too late to change the application.</p>
