<p>hey i applied as an international affairs major but i am considering changing it to econ now...im thinking it might be better to start w a broad major like that and go into a more narrow field like ir later...can i do this? i know they both fall under las...
thanks</p>
<p>You will not have any real issues making the switch but they just prefer that you officially not do so until after the first year.</p>
<p>Same here...i want to switch my major in engineering...i want to do it before i get there but it doesnt really matter bc freshman year, just about all engineering majors take the same courses. So you just have to take the courses an econ major would take and youll be fine</p>
<p>Note that switching from LAS to engineering (a change of college rather than just major) is somewhat more difficult because you are going to need not just the required courses but a fairly high minimum GPA, and usually that transfer is something that is easier to do at end of second year rather than first.</p>
