changing majors

<p>Okay, I applied to the MCS, CIT and HSS. What if I suddenly decided I wanted to major in say, computer science? Or (as is actually the case) that I want to do work for a minor in business? I didn't even apply to the SCS or Tepper. What would I have to do if I wanted to switch? I don't mean today or at the start of the schoolyear, I mean at whatever point you have to declare your major. Just wondering.</p>

<p>You would have to go talk to someone in the department you were interested in transferring into. They would give you a transfer application which would require you to submit a transcript if nothing else. I would do this as soon as possible if you're sure you want to switch. You could also just double major in that subject and remain in your home college.</p>

<p>Getting a minor in something isn't administratively difficult. Again, you would just need to fill out some kind of form in the minor's department. You can start taking classes for a minor whenever you want to.</p>

<p>Okay thanks! I was just confused because the admission letter wanted me to choose between colleges immediately.</p>

<p>Ohhh, you actually do need to select one of the colleges when you enroll. You don't have to choose a major right away, but you must enroll in a single college (except in some special programs, such as BHA, BSA, and SHS). You can transfer into or double major in a college that you didn't apply to and/or didn't get accepted to after you enroll. Sorry for the additional confusion...</p>
