<p>I was admitted to Carlson school of management for fall 2013 but I've changed my mind and want to do an engineering major instead.</p>
<p>Once I go there can I just switch to the college of engineering or is there some process I need to take to officially switch majors? Do I have to apply separately to the engineering school?</p>
<p>Here is a link that might help. If you are really serious about switching to engineering and wish to graduate in 4 years then it is important to follow the recommended course work so you can stay on track. </p>
<p>[Transfer</a> from within the University : College of Science & Engineering : University of Minnesota, Twin Cities](<a href=“http://cse.umn.edu/admissions/transferadm/CSE_CONTENT_374935.php]Transfer”>http://cse.umn.edu/admissions/transferadm/CSE_CONTENT_374935.php)</p>
<p>Click on one of the engineering majors and then download the 4 year plan to view coursework. <a href=“http://cse.umn.edu/deptsmajors/majors/index.php[/url]”>http://cse.umn.edu/deptsmajors/majors/index.php</a></p>
<p>If you are 100% sure, consider calling the admissions office now. I have a friend who applied to the wrong college and was able to get the switch done before starting freshman year.</p>
<p>That said: Carlson seems to do a very good job with the freshman experience (much better than CSE). It would not necessarily be a bad thing to complete their requirements (which are easy) and also take the Calc-Phys-Chem I/II sequence. The downside to this route is that you have to risk a college transfer (which is not guaranteed). However, if you keep up a good GPA I wouldn’t expect that to be a problem.</p>
