<p>i want to double in industrial engineering and organization research and economics, and was wondering if anybody thinks this is a good idea or could help me in the process...</p>
<p>i'm currently in l&s as a freshmen and would need to transfer into the college of engineering. how hard would this be? </p>
<p>thanks in advance!</p>
<p>you might want to look into ORMS, it's pretty much the L&S equivalent of IEOR, & it wouldn't require you having to switch over to CoE</p>
<p>However, ORMS is capped at 25 students.</p>
<p>is it hard to get into orms? harder than getting into haas? </p>
<p>i tried looking for admission stats for orms but couldn't find any. does anyone know the stats on how many apply and get accepted and such?</p>
<p>also, when do most ORMS majors apply? after fall of their 2nd year or spring?</p>
<p>Once a year in February I think (though it may be ongoing-it's a new major). You can apply your 1st or 2nd year.</p>
<p>It's a good idea, but you need to keep a high GPA to have a chance of admittance. 3.7+ is what I feel a decent shot b/c you're transferring from l&s. However, plan for contingency situations.</p>
<p>I looked into ORMS and i think that fits very well, since the only prereqs left for me to complete are math 54 and ba10. What worries me is the cap at 25 students. I should be done with all my prereqs by end of next semester, but I fear not getting in due to the cap. </p>
<p>Does anyone know how difficult it is to actually get in without being put on the waitlist?</p>
<p>It varies in difficulty based on who applied during your time, and how many. There are no public statistics available given that it is a new major.</p>
<p>According to the ORMS advisor, there are currently 34 students on the waitlist. The earliest I can declare for the major is after my 2nd year fall semester. Do I even have a shot of getting in? </p>
<p>Also, I realized you need to declare the major before you reach 80 units. Is it possible to disregard AP and IB credit if you're about to go over the limit?</p>
