<p>I'm fairly sure about wanting to do medicine in the future, but I wanted to study international relations or history or english or something to that effect in college and then just complete pre-med reqs. Georgetown is my DREAM and my stats are a little on the lower side.. i've heard that the nursing school is easier to get into than the CAS? can anyone confirm this?! i will apply to WHICH EVER I HAVE THE BETTER SHOT AT </p>
<p>also, if I did apply to nursing and somehow got accepted, is health the only thing i can study? or can i take other courses at the college? or should i just apply to CAS and forget about the nursing? i'm really puzzled as to how this works so can anyone explain?! CONFUSED</p>
<p>I’ve gone to a few presentations and talks from GU and all have said that its fairly uncommon to go in between schools. The college, not the nursing school, has almost everything you could want I’d apply there. Don’t go to the nursing school if you don’t want to nurse. Bio is a common major for medschool apps I’ve heard, look up some alternatives that would allow you to study at the college so you wouldn’t be limited and could do humanities. Frankly if you want to do med school and you could get into Georgetown go to Johns Hopkins, more broad programs I’ve heard and its got an excellent medical department. They’re average applicants are the same- 680+ on SAT I sections and mostly A’s with good EC’s and so on. Look around yourself- most of us on these forums aren’t experts, and I’m not one by any stretch of the imagination but I hope I’ve helped</p>
<p>i appreciate your input! one question, though,
when you say it’s uncommon to go in between schools, do you mean it’s uncommon to be able to SWITCH between them? but they can’t stop you from switching can they? i understand it’s a hassle but if you don’t wanna study something anymore…?</p>
<p>shout out to the 315 other people who saw this but didn’t respond. come on guys help!!</p>
<p>“Since the four undergraduate schools are distinct colleges under the jurisdiction of separate Deans, students interested in transferring within the University must apply in writing to the school to which they wish to transfer. Students become eligible to transfer between schools at the end of their first year.”</p>
<p>Seems unlikely that you could take classes in between but each would have some overlap in the actual names of the courses, but not staff. </p>
