Departments Within CIT?

<p>I am finishing up my application to CMU today – I applied to CIT, but I have a question about the departments. I put down ECE as my selected department, because it is something I am interested in and I know that you have to put it down if you want to be considered for it. However, I’m a little worried since its no sure thing I can get into ECE. Is it possible to not get selected for the department you pick, but still get into the college (ie CIT)? There’s other engineering fields I couldn’t mind being put in, but I don’t know if they flat out reject you from CIT if you can’t make it into ECE. I think I’m not wording this very clearly, but hopefully someone is able to understand and knows the answer. Thanks.</p>
