<p>wait, im still really confused.
if you are in arts and sciences, you asolutely need to continue taking natural sciences and math!?~?~?</p>
<p>i feel really stupid because im having second thoughts about applying to Arts and Sciences when I think i might want communications. I'm just not 100% positive which is why I didnn't apply directly into communications. Does anybody know what the procedure is from transferring/how soon you can do it?
Or is the college of communications way harder and more selective to get in to?</p>
<p>Each college has its own requirements but I believe almost all of the colleges require some number of math/natural sci, social sci, foreign language, etc. courses. Use the BU website to do some research. Usually, these requirements can be fulfilled through AP credits. Even if you don't have AP credits though, fulfilling the requirements isn't that difficult as you often have a large list of courses that you can take in order to do so. </p>
<p>Transferring between schools is extremely easy, you can usually do so after a semester I believe. Just maintain a good GPA (aim for 3.0+) and you should be fine.</p>
<p>oh, awesome! that's nice to hear that transferring isn't all that hard because i know at a lot of schools it is.
thanks odin64x!</p>
<p>yea transferring for me took a phone call and submitting a 1-page form (CAS to SAR). but sargent has none of those requirements because the health majors require so much. for human phys, i needed 2 social sciences and 3 humanities (which i've loved taking!) and no foreign language (math courses were required for my major but they were also very easy). don't stress! everyone's one goal should be getting into BU and then you can transfer whenever and it is not difficult at all (exceptions would be cfa and eng).</p>
<p>AliAngel - I applied to SAR as a physical therapy major... so that means I have no foreign language requirement? Woot! And since you're in the same college, do you have any additional information about the 6 year doctorate physical therapy program at BU? as far as the difficulty, academics, classes, etc? Any information would be great! Thanks! :D</p>

this is probably the best site to navigate. i dont really know anything about physical therapy; human phys only has about 4 or 5 similar courses. but from my knowledge, the gen chem and orgo required for physical therapy is much easier and only one semester of each (i needed one year of each) and the gross anatomy course is probably the most work you will put into in a course but is probably one of the best courses ive ever taken. you work on 2 cadavers in lab, and within one semester you will have almost every muscle in the human body memorized as well as its nerve & blood supply. sargent is also amazing because, since it is a smaller college, you have much more individual attention. but you will taken some cas courses as well. difficulty of courses is basically dependent on what you put in as effort. some people really struggle in sargent because they put in zero effort, but if you want it and work hard for it then it should be no problem to do well.</p>
