I was interested in the materials science and EECS joint degree in the college of engineering. Does anyone know how difficult it is to get into assuming I was already in the materials science program? Any knowledge of the admissions process or the program itself is appreciated.

Getting a joint degree is sweet. Even though you don’t do as much work, your resume looks like you double majored. Most of my CoE and ChemE friends joint major in EECS, so there should be a lot of guidance out there for you.
