Engineering to Physical Sciences?
Hello, I will be a first year student at Mac in the fall, currently applied to and accepted to Engineering.

My first choice at Mac was Physical Sciences, and luckily, I was accepted to it during the Spring; but without much consideration in a whim I chose Engineering instead
Now after considering the courses and the types of material we will be learning for engineering, I really want to go back and change my major back to Physical Sciences.

In this case, where will I have to contact to change my major? Should I have to contact both facilities? Or will I have to attend first year and then change my major in the second year?

Thanks in advance!

Stick with engineering, you can transfer after first year.

Get out of engineering, call academic advisor for physical sciences. You should follow your heart.

Hey! I was in a similar situation back in my first year. Since you were already accepted into the Physical Sciences program and the school year hasn't started yet, transferring will be easy! Just contact the academic advisers in both faculties and let them know your intentions of switching programs.
