Was his first choice Data Science in the engineering school and the alternate Data Science in the College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences (CNAS)? I ask because my son got alternate DS in CNAS, but not in Engineering. This didn’t make sense to us because DS is taught jointly by CNAS and engineering.

First choice was CS. Got alternate data science in BCE.
