<p>… what if you get into the engineering school and want to shift to wharton … will it be possible??</p>
<p>^ That way, you would have to apply for internal transfer.</p>
<p>o ok… how hard is it?</p>
<p>quite hard, since you need around a 3.8 gpa in your first year</p>
<p>Which college is more competitive to get into at Penn – CAS or SEAS? I’m also uindecided between engineering and math…</p>
<p>SEAS has more % accepted but it’s kinda self-selective…</p>
<p>Hi, everybody! Can anyone help me with this?:
If in response to common app question I write an essay about what I like in Penn and why I choose Huntsman, will it hurt my chances to get into Wharton if I get rejected from Huntsman? I mean, I won’t be writing an essay about advantages of Wharton, but rather about the advantages of interdisciplinary education. Originally I wanted to apply to Wharton, but when I found out about the Huntsman Program, I fell in love with it. Besides, I have pretty good SAT II in French, and not that good score in math, but I don’t want to apply to CAS. So, should I write about my feelings about the Huntsman program, or should I add something in backup for Wharton?</p>
<p>What if I accidently chose a major that I did not want in the application?</p>
<p>For ex. I chose engineering. Got accepted to SEAS. but I want to study a science at CAS.</p>
<p>Would it be possible to switch schools from SEAS to CAS BEFORE classes start if I ask reaaallly early?</p>
<p>It used to be, up to the late 80’s, you could apply to one school, and start taking classes in another school immediately, and then complete the transfer by the end of freshman year. Initially it was changed so that you had to attend your home college for at least a year, and then you could switch.</p>
<p>The major downside they have forced onto people is that they’ll have to go for more years if they change colleges. And acceptance isn’t necessarily guaranteed (CAS → Wharton especially), so you’d have to ingratiate yourself in your Wharton classes to make them want you.</p>
