^^^^ Be careful with assuming that it is easier to switch out of engineering than switch into engineering. There are at least some colleges where this is NOT the case. Case in point is Columbia University. It was one of my D’s top choices, but ultimately she turned it down. We had spoken to several people who told us that it was difficult to switch out of SEAS into the College. My D is planning engineering as a major, but who knows what may happen? So, she changes her mind next year and can’t switch out (or even has to stress about whether or not she will be permitted to make the switch)? No thanks!
