<p>I was accepted to the University of Michigan for Bioengineering Class of 2015, and I was just wondering if you are admitted to that specific major? Or are all students admitted to the College of Engineering, and you need to declare one later on? </p>
<p>If that is not the case, is it hard to change majors within Engineering, and how hard would it be to switch out (maybe to LSA). Can someone explain or provide a link to an answer?</p>
<p>Thanks so much! All input is appreciated (:</p>
<p>You r accepted to the College of Engineering. You start taking ur major specific classes like 2-4 semesters in. You van declare whenever u want. It really doesn’t matter. You don’t have to be declared to a program to take its classes (except for some 400 level courses). </p>
<p>I’ll be declaring sometime my second year. I assume that’s when most do. </p>
<p>As for moving from program to program, again if you aren’t declared u r just taking certain courses required by that program. So it would b as easy as just scheduling different courses.</p>
<p>^Thanks! That cleared things up a lot. So in effect you’re saying that me applying for a bioengineering major holds absolutely zero weight once I attend, and I am free to take any engineering course prior to declaring my major?</p>
<p>Don’t wait forever to declare. Declare when you know you want to major in something, because I started taking major-specific courses during first semester junior year. You might fall behind otherwise.</p>
<p>I declared by the beginning of my 4th semester.</p>
