<p>I recently applied to Pitt's School of Nursing. I have a 3.98 weighted GPA and a 1950 on the SAT's. Pitt sent me a letter in the mail saying that they were going to wait until they received my senior mid-year report and senior year SAT's if I took them. I'm worried that applying to the School of Nursing really hurt my chances of getting in, because I think my grades would definitely be good enough to get accepted into the School of Arts and Sciences. Does anyone know if it is possible to change your intended major/the school that you are applying to after you already submitted your application?</p>
<p>I have this same question. I want to change from Swanson Engineering to School of Arts and Sciences.</p>

<p>I’m actually surprised by that; your stats seem quite on point–both the GPA and the SAT score. the 1950 SAT is in the mid 90s percentile. What was your CR + M? And how were your junior grades? Pitt seems very squirrely on the CR + M combo and barely giving the writing score a nod.</p>
<p>Son is graduating from Pitt in May in Neuroscience/Chem but stayed the course from the beginning–and daughter applied to nursing in August with a 1980/ —650/680/650 and was accepted in September.</p>
<p>cfm posted a score breakdown of 680 reading, 570 math, 700 writing in an earlier post. Pitt generally seems to look for at least 600 on the math portion.</p>
<p>Not to say that you “can’t” get into Pitt without that, but for a competitive program like nursing it may be harder.</p>
<p>@cfm, I would contact the Pitt admisssions office directly with your question about being considered for a different major.</p>
<p>Oh, okay. Thanks Pamom59, that makes sense. Yes, a 570 math would be something they would like to see upgraded… and Nursing is competitive.</p>

<p>You can easily do that because the requirements to get into SSOE are typically higher than to get into A&S. I would contact admissions (OAFA) and talk to them directly about switching. Just say you want to be an undeclared A&S major and it should be fine.</p>
<p>If you were accepted into SSOE can you easily switch between engineering majors from what you originally declared on your application?</p>
