<p>Ok so I applied as an EA. I intend to do pre-med, but i dont wanna major in Bio or Chem. Instead i want to major in math. Specifically, i want to major in Applied Mathematics. I always thought that i would just enter as a “math major” and chose a course once im taking classes, however at some other schools im applying to (such as Northwestern and Vanderbilt) applied mathematics is its own major.</p>

<p>My concerns are over if applied mathematics is a major, or program, or what ever you want to call it at Boston College. Does anyone have any idea?</p>

<p>BC offers both a BA and a BS in math. It sounds like the BS would be better suited for you.</p>

<p>But if you can’t find enough math courses to your liking, you can cross-register (at BU, Tufts or Brandeis, I believe).</p>
