<p>i’m switching from cnr to l&s this week, and i was wondering what the personal statement should be about and how long it should be? it’s really vague on the website. and how straightforward/creative does it need to be?</p>
<p>i was in your position last year. if you are a freshman, it shouldn’t be any longer than one page. just say why you want to leave CNR for LS. It doesn’t need to be creative and full of fluff or anything like that. they pretty much let in all freshman wanting to switch so long as your gpa is above 2.0</p>
<p>thanks! i turned it in already. do you know when and how they let you know?</p>
<p>they will email you about it. i think you will know within a week or so. depends on how busy the office is.</p>
