How easy will it be for me to change my major?

I recently got into Georgia Tech as a Business Administration major, but I’ve realized I’m actually really interested in Environmental Engineering. How easy will it be for me to switch into the program and will it be possible for me to do this prior to classes starting?

From what I can tell, it looks like it’s pretty easy to transfer. However, my understanding is that you can’t transfer until after your freshman semester. This shouldn’t be a big deal though. The first semester engineering curriculum is pretty standard: Calc II, Chemistry, Physics, Electives.

Great thank you!

I think you can change majors at FASAT. Sign up for FASAT 1 or 2 as its less crowded than FASAT 6 or 7.

FASAT 6 in particular is the most crowded and avoid that session.

Also just sign up for classes in environmental engineering right off the bat so you do not get behind even if you are a business major for one semester. Look carefully at the engineering requirements, as they are different than the business major requirements.
