<p>When I applied to Neu I selected undeclared engineering. It really doesnt matter what engineering major you pick as all 1st year engineering students take the same classes and you re-declare your major at the end of your freshmen year. Pharmacy is hard to get in to, I think there is only 100 spots or so, but it really is one of the top programs in the region. As for switching within the engineering college after freshman year, the only problem you will encounter is you may have to take some additional courses. Once you’re admitted to the engineering college all you really need to do is go to your academic advisor and they can help you switch majors and plan out your future courses. You can see what classes are required of each engineering major here: <a href=“http://www.coe.neu.edu/studentservices/index.phtml?go=curricula.htm[/url]”>http://www.coe.neu.edu/studentservices/index.phtml?go=curricula.htm</a></p>
