Harpur vs. college of community affairs

<p>I have just recieved a call from Binghamton that by looking at my application, they would like for me to apply for college of community affairs, not Harpur. I applied undecided and just found out that I was supposed to apply for specific college for specific majors. So can you guys tell me the what both of these colleges are like? and which one would give me a better chance to get in?</p>

<p>the only undergraduate major offered in the ccpa is human development. so unless that's what you want, ccpa isn't the right place for you. look here and see if it something you'd be interested in. College</a> of Community and Public Affairs - Human Development : Prospective Students</p>

<p>harpur is the liberal arts college.</p>

<p>also hdev (human development) courses are offered at the downtown center -- a very nice brand new facility -- but it means community to that building to take the hdev courses (which you generally don't take freshman year anyway -- you focus on your gen ed requirements freshman year)</p>

<p>also hdev (human development) courses are offered at the downtown center -- a very nice brand new facility -- but it means commuting to that building to take the hdev courses (which you generally don't take freshman year anyway -- you focus on your gen ed requirements freshman year).</p>

<p>if you are in ccpa you will still take plenty of courses outside of ccpa - usually starting late sophmore or early junior year you'll start focusing on the hdev courses.</p>

<p>if you are interested, ccpa is a smaller program so its a chance to be in smaller classes, get to know your profs, work closer with an advisor. harpur is larger in those regards. but it really depends on what you want to study. you can enter harpur undecided.</p>

<p>Thank you iamhere
well, do any of you guys know flexibilty of switching majors?, like switching from branch to another branch?</p>

<p>Switching between majors that are NOT in the same colleges requires an Intra-University Transfer (IUT). Switching majors within the same college (ie: Computer Engineering to Electrical Engineering) is managed by the advising office of the particular school.</p>

<p>In general, it is easier to switch majors within the same school than to obtain an IUT- especially into the School of Management.</p>
