One thing that you should consider–if I have my information right, is that even if you never get into SCS, you can always get a “dual major” or “additional major” in computer science. A dual major is getting two separate bachelors degrees, requiring several extra courses. An additional major is when the courses you have taken apply for both majors. It could be possible to not take a single extra class, if you schedule it right and pick a compatible major. Both degrees are-to my understanding–no acceptance into SCS required. So I’m thinking that whether you call it a dual major in IS/CS or additional major, that would look pretty darn good on your resume! Though I don’t know how many classes from IS are going to work for CS, I know there are some majors that are really compatible with CS.
