Switching Majors in Liberal Arts Colleges

<p>I heard it is relatively easy to switch majors in universities. Does the same hold true for liberal arts colleges? And are the first 1 or 2 years in a liberal arts college devoted to general education as well?</p>

<p>Generally, yes and yes.</p>

<p>However, if you are undecided between several majors, you need to plan your first year schedule so that you can choose any of them without delaying graduation due to prerequisite sequences. This is especially true if one of the majors has long prerequisite sequences like engineering or physics.</p>

<p>It’s generally relatively easy.</p>

<p>I would say that by your 4th semester you should be getting into classes tailored specifically to your major. Up to that point, you can certainly design your schedule to mainly knock out gen ed requirements.</p>
