Switching faculties/programs
Hello!

So I am in first year Humanities right now, and I basically just took a pretty general year so that I could figure out what I'd like to do for the rest of university! So I basically have half Humanities courses, and half Social Science courses. I'm thinking I would like to continue in Sociology (Honors B.A.) and Psychology (maybe do a minor in it) for next year, but they're both in Social Science, not Humanities. By the end of this year (if all goes well that is) I should technically have all of the pre-requisites to continue in them, so would it be difficult to do so even though I'm in Humanities?
Not totally sure if this is what I'll do yet, but figured I would ask to see what people say
Thank you in advance!

If you have the prereqs then you just apply to be in that major for next year (I think the selections happen around Feb/March? Not entirely sure). It doesn't matter what faculty you're in in first year, as long as you have the prereqs for the program you want in second year.
