<p>Just wondering, how many internal transfer applicants for BCSA (Bachelor of Comp. Sci. and Arts) are there each semester?</p>
<p>Also, is 36-217 Probability Theory and Random Processes a hard class? How about Modern Biology (03121)? Would a sophomore have too much trouble handling both while taking Concepts of Math?</p>
<p>… anyone? plz?</p>
<p>you can definitely do those three classes all together, provided you are reasonably good at math and you can memorize as necessary for bio. 217 and concepts will have a bit of overlap in probability, so for grade padding purposes you could also choose to take 217 later – but really there is no reason you couldn’t do both now</p>
<p>As of spring 2012, approximately 12% of the (several hundred) high school students applying to the CMU School of Art are also BCSA applicants. Of these, only 3 to 5 students are accepted into BCSA per year. There is a total of approximately 20 BCSA undergraduates at any time. </p>
<p>Additionally, about 2-4 students attempt to transfer internally each year. Usually one or two of these students are able to make a convincing case for transfer. </p>
<p>Approximately 1 BCSA student per year transfers ‘back’ to being a pure CS or Art major. It’s a challenging degree program.</p>
