Ask me all your questions. I know a lot.

<p>At most other schools, a business/engineering double major is just a double major within a specialized school and the college, or within just the college. At U of M, that specific degree is a double major within two specialized schools, both very rigorous with many requirements. I think it would detract from your experience if you knocked yourself out with that kind of work. </p>

<p>Best,

<p>Do you know anything about how it is to major in math/science (physics)? Is there is a lot of homework? How is it to be an out of stater? Does the weather bother you. What is the worst thing about the inversity, and what is the best thing (in your opinion of course)?</p>

<p>An alumnus of my school triple-majored in physics, math, and astronomy at U of M. He's now studying on some kind of (very prestigious) scholarship at Oxford.</p>

<p>So if you really want to do engineering + business, don't let anyone tell you it isn't possible</p>

<p>sm97, I think you have a better chance if you major in math and engineering rather than business and engineering.</p>

<p>I don't think you can double major if you major in business. I would contact the school.</p>

<p>These are all in LSA which allows double major. The business school used to disallow double major with the BBA program. There used to be a clear statement in the BBA FAQ on this topic. It might have changed as the BBA is now a 3-year program. Other people more informed may be able to clarify that.</p>

<p>i got invited to the RC and i have a couple questions.</p>

<p>do u live with one another and don't get to interact with the other students around here?</p>

<p>what's the atmosphere like in the rc?</p>

<p>do u just learn and enroll in rc courses only or can u do a mix of lsa and rc and are the courses difficult?</p>

<p>i'm interested in the arts but i don't plan on majoring in any of them. i just like to do it as a extracurricular activity like theater and photography so should i accept the offer to go to the rc or not?</p>

<p>any response would help especially from a person in the rc :)</p>

<p>ok, the guy who triple majored is practically a genius. Unless u have genius genetics, I wouldn't recommend triple majoring.</p>

<p>double majoring in engin and business is basically torture if not impossible. Do engin as undergrad and MBA as grad. Not only wiser, but it looks better on ur resume.</p>

<p>How hard is it to get accepted into the School of music? As in, how many violinists do they generally accept each year?</p>

<p>Hey crazyviolin, wheres THE residence hall to live at as a freshman?</p>

<p>South Quad is pretty tight. idk about west quad. Stockwell is nice if u want all girls. Couzens is where i live and generally nice since it is more modern. Basically, stay away from Bursley and Baits (North campus housing). Mojo won't be an option next year. Alice Lloyd is alright, but it looks like a box. East Quad is ok...u will likely go there for orientation. Not a fan of East Quad food though or summer time temps in the hallways (too high).</p>

<p>One does not need to be a genius to triple major, cherrybarry. I am seriously considering triple majoring in 4 years and I am by no means a genius. It's just right for some people who have an interest in multiple related/overlapping fields and think they can handle the work. Also dsmo, if you're referring to Jake, he didn't triple major, it was just a double in honors and physics, and he's going to Cambridge on the scholarship, not Oxford. If it's not Jake, then just kidding, this person may certainly exist. And Jake was no genius, he just tried really hard, and that gets you places in life. As far as living, anything with quad in the name is pretty nice. I would rank South, then west, then east, but I'm just one opinion. Double majoring in math and physics is not very hard ares, many people including my RA are doing/have done it before.</p>

<p>xaiur: if u can get into west quad as a freshman, by all means do it. easily the best location on campus</p>

<p>How does admission to the honors program work? I was admitted to Michigan via Wolverine Access on Thursday but have not received my acceptance package yet. Im just wondering what kind of stats are needed for honors, when I would find out if I got in, and any details about the program. Thanks..</p>

<p>I'm not sure that statement is justified. First of all, South quad and west quad are separeated by two lanes of street and that is all, so then i guess both dorms would have to have the best location on campus. Also, east quad is just as close to the Diag as those dorms, and for engineering students or other people who must frequent north campus, then maybe north housing is better. It's mostly individual needs, but South and west quad tend to be the best location for most students.</p>

<p><em>bows down to chibearsfan17</em></p>

<p>:-/</p>

<p>unless ur an upperclassmen engin major with 3 or 4 classes in engineering, i would not recommend north campus housing...</p>

<p>ppl in other schools seem to have this notion that even freshmen engineers take enough classes on north campus that would justify them living there. This is not true. Typically, u will only have to go to north only 2/3 times a week. And the bus ride is seriously not that bad. Even if ur in Bursley, and even worse Baits, u may still have to ride the bus to Pierpont. I'd rather ride the bus a few times a week and have the social life/shops/restaurants of central than live in Bursley where the walk to Pierpont is still 5-10 min. U can get to north by bus in 15 min (during class hrs)...so it's not worth it for freshmen, unless u have some other reason to live in north.</p>

<p>Couzens is a great location for me because the bus stop to north is right in front. Also, South and West Quad do not offer a significant advantage in terms of location over the dorms on the Hill. Angell is closer to South/West Quad but Chem building is closer to the Hill.</p>

<p><em>Agrees with cherry</em></p>

<p>Thanks for all advices regarding double majoring in Engg and Business. Assuming that I at least make an attmpt at this foolhardiness, are classes for Business in a different campus and do I have to do a lot of travelling or these classes (Business and engg) are conducted in relatively bunched up locations? One does not have to spend a lot of time in commuting? Kindly advice. (Please understand, I am not hell bent on doing impossible. Just trying to figure out all factors.)</p>

<p>West quad is connected to the union, across the street from the diag, and right next to the LSA building. Don't really see how this can be argued... except of course for engineering students and other non-LSA concentrations.</p>
