<p>I'm surrently considering three different majors, so if I don't decide by the beginning of freshman year can I take all core courses that year and save the courses that count towards my major for the next three year. Since I don't know how many credits I will need for my major I'm just afraid that if I take a course that I don't need for my major now I won't be able to get enough credits for my major, or even a major and a concentration, later.</p>
<p>that was confusingly worded, but the answer is yes, you can take a bunch of classes that overlap and count towards core requirements, overlapping major requirements or concentration requirements, etc.</p>
<p>The average CC student switches majors twice. Trust me, as long as you can pick something by spring of sophomore year, very little that you do as an undergrad will be a “wasted” course, from a requirements perspective.</p>
<p>Denzera (or any other CU students):</p>
<p>How common (or difficult) is it for students to complete a concentration in addition to a major? Thanks</p>

<p>thats BS…unless you are referring to someone coming in freshman year and saying they’re majoring in something and then change their mind and then end up declaring something different…but i’m sure in terms of OFFICIALLY switching the average would not be twice. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>very common …difficulty depends on the major</p>
<p>just going off what i heard. i did know a ton of people who switched majors though.</p>
<p>the point wasn’t the quantity, though, the point is that it’s acceptable to switch plans freshman year, sophomore year, even junior year and come out unscathed.</p>
<p>I have to agree with Shraf here. Not that it doesn’t happen, but I don’t know a single person who formally switched majors twice. Since you don’t declare your major until almost junior year, it’d be kind of hard to formally switch majors.</p>
<p>However, plenty of freshmen/sophomores want to major in something different almost every week.</p>
<p>This is kind of different from my original question but I didn’t want to post another thread.
If you get a 5 on the psychology ap test will you get credit or be allowed to skip a course? I looked on the columbia website and psychology wasn’t listed on the page with the rest of the ap classes.</p>
<p>If it’s not listed with the rest of the AP classes, Columbia doesn’t accept it.</p>
