<p>hmm i originally applied to trinity and was going to major in business, but now i have no idea what i'm going to do</p>
<p>i'm actually kind of leaning towards engineering...</p>
<p>so can i switch to pratt or take classes from both or something?</p>
<p>You can take classes however you want regardless of which school you are in. Generally, folks need to have decided Pratt or Trinity after two or three semesters since the requirements for each becore fairly vastly divergent at that point. </p>
<p>One quick thing - we have no "business" undergrad per se, so maybe Econ would be the way to pursue that one? </p>
<p>In any event, the easiest way to keep all the doors open is to take some kind of math, some kind of chemistry if you don't already have AP, and EGR 10 to get a better idea about engineering. If you are leaning more strongly towards engineering, you could also take EGR 53 with the caveat that it does not count towards the Trinity Curriculum.</p>
<p>i dont think anything can be "fairly vastly"... seems like those would cancel each other out... but that is why you are the professor and I am but a mere grasshopper.</p>
<p>well, the use of the ancient term "becore" is what makes that all work</p>
<p>well...hopefully I won't regret staying in pratt for the first year...and EGR53 better be good! lol</p>
<p>now, I heard that it's good to take EGR10 as well as EGR53, so are those in different semesters? I'm planning on my first semester taking intro chem, math 103, writing 20, and one of those two EGR courses.</p>
<p>EGR 10 is only offered in the Fall. 53 is offered both BUT we are trying to get as many people as possible to take it in the Fall. 10 is a half-credit, pass-fail seminar course so it isn't really taxing so much as informative. So you can take both.</p>
<p>Okay...so I could take Chem, Math 103, writing 20, and both EGR's in the first semester? Even though that's five courses?</p>
<p>Also, will EGR 10 take care of the required seminar class all first-year students have to take?</p>
<p>EGR 10 will not take care of the Trinity requirement for a seminar in the first year (Pratt has no such requirement). I *think<a href="note%20-%20nonbinding%20statement%20of%20belief;%20not%20to%20be%20construed%20as%20fact;%20contact%20Dean%20Simmons%20for%20Truth">/i</a> that Pratt students who choose to transfer to Trinity are waived from the first-year seminar requirement, but Trinity students who plan to transfer to Pratt are not... I will try to check in the AM and re-post.</p>
<p>DukeEgr is right, pratt students don't have a first year seminar requirement. And if you are a trinty student and want to transfer to pratt, you will still have to take the trinty required first year seminar requirement since technically you are still a trinty freshman</p>
