Your chances of being accepted into engineering as a woman are probably 75% better than being accepted into liberal arts- just guessing, but engineering programs are always dying for girls. And, if you do decide to pursue engineering as a career, your job opportunities are huge. I switched from english to Chem E back in the 70’s, and when I graduated got a job as technical editor of a trade journal based in Europe- a dream job. My english major friends were working at Starbucks while I was traveling the world business class. So be practical- apply to Pratt, give eng. a try and you can switch later if you want to.
