<p>I was put on the priority waitlist for this program and not accepted to any others...I was wondering if I enrolled if I would be locked into this major. Right now I am not sure if I want to do engineering or something like IS. I wanted to start out in engineering but I can't obviously...CMU is a great school but I don't want to go there and find out that I can't switch to something like MechE if IS isn't for me. Anyone know?</p>
<p>Yes you should be able to at cmu.</p>
<p>Here is a quote directly from there site:
"Can I change my major?
We understand that students interest can change after they enter college and we do our very best in helping them achieve their goals. Students have the flexibility of transferring within MCS or between colleges at Carnegie Mellon. Each college has its own procedures for assessing transfer applicants. Here is a student's perspective on changing majors."
