My kid did the opposite, and changed from International Studies to Political Science, and found that some of the required courses transferred very easily. Both majors require a hard course, World Politics. I would think you could change majors fairly easily, especially if done early on, so that you could do the First Year Seminar course and start your thematic area courses for SIS.You’ll need depth in another language, too, which SIS requires but Political Science doesn’t. Good luck!
