<p>Just curious, or maybe a more realistic question would be if there any schools where you do not have to apply to the engineering college specifically?</p>
<p>Anyways thank you very much</p>
<p>Case Western Reserve has an open door policy…you are admitted to the school as a whole…you choose your major once you get there. And, engineering is one of their strengths.</p>
<p>Caltech
Taken from the Caltech website:
Techers declare an academic major (called an “option” at Caltech) at the end of their freshman year.</p>
<p>There are a number of schools with engineering programs where you don’t declare a major when you apply. For example: MIT, Stanford, Swarthmore, Smith, Harvey Mudd.</p>
<p>Oh cool, this is great information to know seeing that I know for sure I want to go to engineering…I just don’t know which field. </p>
<p>I think that’s very nice to know about Case Western, that they have a complete open door policy.</p>
<p>There are plenty of schools with rather low admission standards where getting into the engineering school (assuming you’re competitive for Case) is virtually guaranteed.</p>
<p>Some schools for which you have to apply to the engineering division allow you to specify “engineering undeclared” for your major, then declare a specific engineering major after a few semesters without having to apply to declare the major. Berkeley is such a school, although “engineering undeclared” may be more selective than the specific engineering majors.</p>
<p>The University of Minnesota - Twin Cities admits all students to the College of Science and Engineering as undeclared students. Students who complete a major’s prerequisites with a 3.2 technical GPA are automatically admitted to the major; others may be admitted to majors where there is space available.</p>
<p>Check for similar arrangements at other schools of interest.</p>
