<p>I am applying for College of Art and Science, but I am also interested in Materials. Is it difficult for students to tranfers among these colleges in freshman year and upcoming years?</p>
<p>Its easy to transfer between schools</p>
<p>My friend applied ED1 to the peabody school of education as an HOD major and I applied to the college of arts and sciences ED2 as an econ major, however we both want to study econ. I DEFFINETLY had a better application than him. He got in, I didn’t. No hard feelings, but I just feel as if he worked the system and his strategy was better than mine. Good for him! Sometime I regret not doing what he did. Is it going to be easy / doable for him to switch into Econ? I know this is something that many people try to do.</p>
<p>It’s very easy to switch between schools. </p>
<p>@prepurm, as for you and you and your friend, there were probably other factors/random chance involved. The admissions team looks for slightly different qualities in Peabody students than in A&S. It is not significantly easier to get into Peabody as you seem to be suggesting.</p>
<p>@ElmonChan: Just so you know, Vanderbilt does not have a materials science major, but they do have different majors with materials concentrations. </p>
<p>Engineering science major with materials concentration (School of Engineering):
[Undergraduate</a> Program | School of Engineering | Vanderbilt University](<a href=“http://engineering.vanderbilt.edu/materials-science/undergraduate-program.php]Undergraduate”>Undergraduate Program | Materials Science | School of Engineering | Vanderbilt University)</p>
<p>Chemistry major with materials concentration (College of Arts and Sciences):
[The</a> Chemistry Major | Department of Chemistry | Vanderbilt University](<a href=“Department of Chemistry | Vanderbilt University”>Major and Minor | Department of Chemistry | Vanderbilt University)</p>
<p>thanks for your infomation. </p>
<p>there is still one question, the core one, is it hard to transfer bewteen A&S and engineering school?</p>
<p>No, it’s pretty easy. People rarely get declined.</p>
