<p>does bu admit people by major, or by school? for example i want to transfer into film/tv there, but when making the adcom makes the admissions decision, does my major influence the decision, or just the school, the college of communication? thanks.</p>
<p>School only, unless it’s a special program like SMED (seven-year medical school program).</p>
<p>Ditto majors in the College of Fine Arts. You must audition to get into the music programs. If you start out in the College of Fine Arts as an art major, you cannot easily switch to music. You must audition. Likewise, you would need a portfolio review to be admitted as an art major.</p>
<p>well i am attempting to transfer from another university (uc berkeley), not from a school within bu, so is it still the same case? the school you are applying to is important and not the major? thanks.</p>
<p>just out of curiosity, why do you want to transfer out of UC Berkeley?</p>
