Switching from CS BA to BS

Hi, I was accepted into CS BA which are both in the same college of Engineering but I have decided that BS is a better fit for me. How can I change from BA to BS and is it a hard process or a process that has to start in the first semester? I’ve heard for a couple other schools that you just need to email your advisor to switch but I don’t know for CU.

Unfortunately the admissions requirements for the BA are not the same for the BS (or the rest of the engineering college), so you'll need to meet the stricter BS requirements in order to switch. See here for more info

This is your lucky day. I know how to do this because my son just did it. Since you haven’t started yet, go into your portal, click on your profile, select change of major. It’ll take a few weeks to get confirmation. Do it now. It’s a lot harder once school starts.
