Finalizing undergrad application to Boston College however I still can not decide if I want to apply to CSOM or CAS… is it tougher go get into CSOM than CAS? I feel like I would be facing a stronger applicant pool for CSOM, especially regarding the math portion for SAT scores (I scored 720, which seems below average for competitive business schools.)
I’m having a hard time finding data and acceptance rates online, so would anyone be able to help me out? Thanks.
That’s the generally accepted theory. They don’t break it down on acceptance percentage. But I believe that if you remove the nursing and education schools (which are also incredibly competitive) the difference isn’t as pronounced between mcas and csom
The recommendation given during the day we visited was to apply to CSOM if you felt you would potentially pursue a business track. The reason being that it can be difficult to transfer into CSOM from one of the other schools due to slot availability. You would have more options to change your major after starting in CSOM than the other way around.
Agreed.
