<p>If I apply to Harvard SEAS, am i considered in the same applicant pool as someone who wants to do eco...???? wat is the case wid Yale and princeton?????</p>
<p>Engineering maybe, simply because it’s a different branch of learning entirely.</p>
<p>But I don’t think applying as an English Major vs. applying as a History Major is all that Earth-shattering, considering you’d check the same box (Humanities) in the Harvard supplement.</p>
<p>may be…but i red somewhere that engg or eco…u r just the same…didnt seem quite realistic!</p>
<p>Is there any way to check out the actual thing???</p>
<p>all applicants are working in the same pool - you don’t apply directly to SEAS even if you’re concentration falls under them (Engineering Sciences, Computer Science and Applied mathematics). Being an applied math concentrator, I will still graduate with the college; my affiliation with SEAS is generally arbitrary except that I can utilize the school’s resources more readily.</p>
<p>what about the application pool…I get the working part but…you know…is it true to say tat getting into harvard engineering is easier than oder courses</p>
<p>Applying as a certain concentration will rarely make it easier on an applicant. Analogy: many say that being from an underrepresented state will give you a boost, but one year the college failed to accept a single applicant from North Dakota. So I’m just going to say again that all applicants are working in the same pool, and something as casual as intended concentration doesn’t have loud resonance, especially since about 1/3 of Harvard undergraduates will change their concentration at least once.</p>
<p>^
and that percentage change is based upon concentration choices actually filed for sophomore year, not indications any time prior to that.</p>
<p>Short answer to OP’s question “is it true to say tat getting into harvard engineering is easier than oder courses” is “no”.</p>
<p>If this is a ■■■■■, it’s kind of a lame one.</p>
<p>^ I know… it’s like a ■■■■■ post that’s ■■■■■■■■ by pretending to be a stupid ■■■■■.</p>
<p>It’s so bad that people just consider it a badly written question…</p>
