switching programs.
heyy guys, so i'm think about switching my program. i know that its probably too late to do it now(or is it?) but i was just wondering how i would go about doing it. could i switch for second semester? i'm thinking about switching into the life sciences program. im currently enrolled in medical radiation sciences. i want to be finished the four years, in four years, so would i have to take on a heavier course load? thank you in advance.

Look up the requirements for the program that you want to switch to - especially their year 1 courses. Then take as many of these as you possibly can. I would talk to an academic advisor for your faculty before hand so that they can possibly get you into required courses or give you any advice. If they're offered, you could always take courses during summer school if you need to make up credits in your desired program and then you could start year II with no worries.

Call your faculty's academic advisors or meet with them when school starts.
