<p>if you're accepted into a program like huntsman and halfway through your freshman year, you decide you really don't like the climate/curriculum/students/whatever in huntsman, can you drop it and pursue a single degree in one of the schools (wharton/cas)?</p>
<p>i don't anticipate this ever happening, but i am curious what the answer is, just in case</p>
<p>yes you can</p>
<p>There isn’t really such a thing as dropping out of the program because of the people…</p>
<p>honestly the only reasons anyone ever drops out of the dual/joint programs are:
<p>I’d say that you can count on one hand (in each graduating class ) the number of people across all three programs who leave a joint program (for whatever reason).</p>
<p>5) They lose all interest in the non-Wharton degree
6) Their program has an inconvenient internship requirement</p>
<p>P.S. now there are four joint degree programs. :)</p>
<p>I know of one who dropped M&T for engineering because they didn’t just click at all with Wharton (another kept announcing that he’d drop M&T for Engineering initially, but I think it was to just garner attention, as it was obvious that this wasn’t going to happen). I know of a few others who’ve dropped Huntsman because they didn’t feel it was the right mix. Other than that, most joint-degree students choose to stick with things. But the option’s definitely there.</p>
<p>theoneo, you referring to LSM? I just noticed that’s it’s now a dual degree. nice.</p>
<p>Whats the 4th joint degree program?</p>
<p>i think its nursing and wharton</p>
