Combined Plan/3-2 Applicants

<p>Have you guys mailed in the application? Any thoughts?</p>

<p>Is there an option of waiting to apply for the combined plan? I am going to Seas and would like to stay another year for a BA; however, I did not apply for it straight out. I was told that I could wait a year, can someone confirm this?</p>

<p>The 3-2 is something completely different drake.</p>

<p>Checking out the CU website wouldn't kill you.</p>

<p>You can apply for the dual degree (3-2) after enrolling in Fu/SEAS. The number of students in the program is so small that they would love to have someone with a strong math/science/engineering background adding some variety to the CC student body.</p>

<p>By the way, I was a CC undergrad who considered enrolling in 3-2 after my freshman year, and the Deans I spoke to were highly encouraging about the idea.</p>

<p>Good luck to you!</p>

<p>I described the 4-1 program with the dual degrees from SEAS/CC in another forum post. It's an outstanding perk for SEAS grads who want to put some oomph into their resumes. I wish I had considered this back in my college days.</p>

<p>@ CrookedI I did read the entire college engineering seas view book and course work. There was only half a page on the 4-1 plan and I just wanted clarification about when I can apply. I'll take a better look once finals are done.</p>

<p>@ jamescchen I will search for your posts about the combined plan. Thanks.</p>

<p>bump.............</p>

<p>Anyone got the confirmation email with the code and all?</p>

<p>Just to let you know that despite its awesomeness, there are relatively few students who partake in the 3-2 program annually. I think it's primarily because 3-2 is a really tough program, and most students want to get college over with ASAP.</p>

<p>Believe it or not, medical schools love these types of students. They'll even overlook the lower GPAs these students have because they're generally are more well-rounded than the typical med school applicant.</p>

<p>after reading...i wish i had applied (</p>

<p>James, what is better - 3-2 or 4-1?
I know that they both take 5 years.. is 4-1 simply more engineering based?</p>

<p>^they're perfectly equivalent, 3-2 is for CC, 4-1 is for seas, it just takes 4 year in seas and 2 extra years in CC to get an engineering degree. the 3-2 might have you take frontiers, the 4-1 doesn't require it.</p>

<p>Anyone hear anything from Columbia?</p>

<p>just curious. if you can graduate in 3 years because of ap credit at SEAS, could the '4-1' program technically become '3-1'?</p>

<p>Anyone hear anything</p>

<p>so... I was wondering if you could still apply for 3-2 if you already take one year of SEAS?</p>

<p>any notifications?</p>

<p>anything???</p>

<p>Anyone hear back yet?</p>

<p>yes you can. I have talked to Pam Mason about it. Talk to your academic advisory; although, you will have to get the college core done soon.</p>
