<p>Wow! (and phew!) Thank you everyone for the heads up applying to CSE rather than CLA. I knew it was more difficult to get in CSE or CBS or CSOM than CLA, but I didn’t even think about the difficulty one may encounter in attempting to transfer. You saved us from a major error. </p>
<p>Do CSE students regularly take CLA classes even after freshman year? Or I guess another way to ask the question: is it easy to take CLA classes if one is in CSOM or CSE? Could a student have a major at CSE and a 2nd major at CLA? I’m hoping my S will want to finish his math major and then use his extra time to do another major (may end up being a major in CLA).</p>
<p>Robert Poch sounds wonderful! My S took APUSH and is taking AP World w/ the original intention of getting out of dist reqs, but he is finding himself actually interested in what he is learning. So good to know there is such a passionate wonderful history prof at the U. S is getting more and more confused about what he wants to major in as he takes these AP classes intending to get out of areas he had been dismissive of before taking the class. Econ is another one he ended up liking a lot. Before he seemed so math/science slanted. I guess this is the reason that I was originally thinking CLA may be the way to go…until you all gave me the heads up that is.</p>
<p>Thanks again for the great advice and also for the very helpful links.</p>
