<p>I applied as a transfer student to Texas A&M as a Physics major and I see on my AIS that my first choice major has been changed to General Studies.</p>
<p>What does this mean? Am I accepted into General Studies and not physics or what?</p>
<p>I met the same situation. I contacted the Office of Admissions and Record and they replied that the space was full, so they admitted me to General Studies instead. Though I applied as freshman, not transfer, I guess at this time, there is no room for those who are waiting in any major except for General Studies.
I just hate this way they handle the applications.</p>
<p>Mattowander, Have you been offered admission as a transfer student?</p>
<p>Nope! I’m actually still on step 3. Why do you ask?</p>
<p>I am also applying as a transfer. Still on step 3. My major was changed from Mechanical Engineering to General Engineering.</p>
<p>Oh. At least you’re still in Engineering 
I’m in General Studies. I guess it’s better to get in as General Studies then to not get in at all right?</p>
<p>Definitely better to get in as General Studies then not at all! Just can’t wait to move from Step 3!</p>
<p>do you guys know when the transfer applicants will start getting acceptance or rejection letters?</p>
<p>Nope But I heard they don’t actually start reviewing applications until after the deadlines. Doesn’t make sense to me…</p>
<p>Mattowander did you have all the track courses completed? or how much have your completed? How many hours have you have?</p>
<p>No I’m in degree track D and I’m missing Calculus II and Chemistry II but I’m taking them this semester. I currently have 33 hours and I’ll have 47 at the end of this semester. I have a 4.0 GPA and a pretty good essay so I’m hoping that I at least get into General Studies.</p>
<p>I can’t see why they didn’t accept you into physics? =(</p>
<p>Probably because I’m missing two courses from my degree track What is your major?</p>
<p>I want to get into biology but don’t have all the courses done so hopefully general studies.</p>
<p>Yeah do you happen to know how easy the College of Science is to get into?</p>
<p>No idea but i’m guessing its easier than mays =p</p>
<p>Yeah that’s true 
I just want to know if I got accepted or not…if I have to send in my spring semester grades I might not get my letter until June or July…:(</p>
<p>I just got accepted to Physics major today. Fortunately, I didn’t have to wait too long. I had applied on Jan 20. My stat was good 3.9 GPA, 1340 SAT, international, plus I showed a hell lot of interest in A&M in my personal statement. </p>
<p>Good Luck to You Guys!!</p>
<p>Wow really!? How did you find out advertise?!</p>
<p>The decision was under Step 4 tab. It says they sent me the letter on mail yesterday. I was on Step 3 for almost 2 weeks. If you haven’t been accepted yet, mattowander, how could they change your major? Maybe its a mistake. You can always call or email them in case if its a mistake. Your stat looks pretty good to me…</p>
