I applied to UDel EA about two months ago. Being on the lower percentile of applicant’s scores I have been very conflicted on which major would be less competitive and would best result in acceptance. Currently, I applied as a Marketing major but I also have a strong interest in Communications and PR. I emailed admissions and they offered to complete a major switch to be reconsidered once the admissions office is open again. If anyone knows how competitive each college in the university is that would be awesome. UDel is my number one and I would love to study either major.
I don’t have numbers to back it up, but I’d expect an easier acceptance into Communications than Marketing since the business school is more competitive than the college of Arts & Sciences.
The Communications major is competitive… very competitive. Freshman start as communication interest majors… after the first year they select who can actually enter the program. It is very selective and competitive.
Do you have more information on this? I see different paths after 2 years, but not that they’re limited.
