Engineer in CLAS

<p>I also have this issue sort of. Half the schools I applied to, I applied into SEAS, the other half into A&S. The way things worked out, a good deal of disappointment later, I was heading to UVa in CLAS. The best thing obviously is to be more decisive about this before you send in applications but obviously it’s too late for that. I’m going to possibly inquire about trying to transfer to seas this weekend and see how that goes. I don’t like the way the education system is currently. Kids should be able to get the best education they want, and locking out kids from their top choices goes opposed to that. Kids should also not need to be locked into a major they don’t want from the start. So the clas/seas dilemma shouldn’t be an issue so early on. It’s hard to get a clear view of what you want to do without real word application and taking actual classes. Even so, when you get to orientation, try to sign up for classes that are flexible your first semester in that they can help with a possible engineering transfer. That’s all you can do for now. That and look at transferring out of virginia. But I wouldn’t advise even thinking about transferring until after your first semester.</p>
