CC to SEAS?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Columbia University

<p>OKAY SOOOO I have a little bit of a problem.</p>

<p>About a week ago, I decided that I wanted to apply to Fu, but when I looked online it said that I needed a math teacher's letter of rec, while I only asked my English and AP Chemistry teachers. I was pretty disappointed, because I have shifted a little towards engineering as I've written more and more college essays (dang, those things are insightful ahha).</p>

<p>Anyway, I reluctantly sent in my application as a CC applicant, but I've still been regretting it. So basically, I was wondering if anyone knew whether Columbia would accept a Chemistry teacher rec (I mean... it's still heavily math-based, right? And most engineering schools recommend Math II + Chemistry subject test, both of which I sent to Columbia) or allow me to send in a math teacher rec a little late. Would they allow me to switch to SEAS, or am I screwed? ...I already even have that answer to their portion of the application specifically for Fu applicants.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>^i sent in two science recs and I'm at the school. i personally think eng and chem is good enough, tell them you want to switch schools and ask them if you can submit the seas essay late.</p>

<p>also is this just your short term fickleness, or do actually want to study engineering for 4 years - it is not for slackers.</p>

<p>^LOL naw i do want to, but columbia is the only school i'd study it at 'cause it's the only school i feel that combines engineering with a rounded education well... and i want to be able to think OUTSIDE of just engineering haha.</p>

<p>does the office open on the 5th? i can't reach them :( thanks for your help btw!!</p>
