No it’s not. Writing essays about electrical is also fine. Administrators and admissions officers understand that plans change often. However a few things to note:
If you are in the engineering school and wish to major in something from Columbia College, you have to reapply as an internal transfer which is getting easier as SEAS has become significantly more selective.

Within the engineering school you have a year or so to do decide what you major in; I am still deciding what to study.

Financial engineering is the only application-only major within SEAS. You can major in it, but you have to be admitted. There is no cap apparently. http://ieor.columbia.edu/bs-financial-engineering
