<p>I sent the admission office an email last week and said I was interested in the LSP program. I got a reply saying that I won't be considered because I applied to the biochemistry major.
Thus, I sent the office an email on Tuesday again and asked if I could change my major to Biology. (I'm pretty sure biology is totally fine for LSP.)</p>
<p>And so far I haven't received any reply yet :( I guess they started to hate me now...</p>
<p>Look, I think you need to relax a little. They don’t hate you, the fact is they receive something like 30,000 applications per year and this time of year they’re being bombarded with emails, phone calls, and faxes from countless parents, high school and transfer applicants, guidance counselors, teachers, etc. I’m a student and when I email a professor, advisor, TA, or member of the staff I often don’t hear back for over a week or two. </p>
<p>There really is no point in contacting them further. You already applied and your input doesn’t really make a difference at this point. It’s not like Admissions is going to read your email and go, “Oh, look at that, he wants Bio, not Biochem, so let’s stick him in Liberal Studies!” The major you apply with doesn’t make much difference anyhow.</p>
<p>^I know that the admission office did let a person change his major so that he could be considered for the LSP. He had first applied to Math, then the admission office did let him change his major to Economics so that he would be considered. Thus now I am very worried He got the response pretty fast though I think…</p>
<p>It’s really, truly, totally out of your hands right now. Seriously. Go watch LOST, eat some Ben and Jerry’s, study for APs, or whatever. There is NOTHING you can do right now that will improve your chances. You are stressing yourself out for NO reason.</p>
