So I applied for the engineering college and they rejected me even though I have a 3.9 gpa and all the classes required for admission. They made it sound like the college is full because they can't even accept me as a undecided engineering major. I'm freaking out a little bit because next semester, according to the curriculum, I should be taking 3 EE classes. So unless I could take summer classes I would finish a semester late and that's if spots open up in the college of engineering.
I want to be an EE and need to figure out how I should approach this. The physics degree at my school has a nice option with engineering electives (15 credits) and the college of engineering does have an EE minor which if I do get accepted for the minor later it won't matter that much. So I could do a physics major with 33 credits in EE (18 minor + 15 physics electives) and still graduate on time.
I guess my questions is has anyone ever done a physics degree with the complete intention on becoming an engineer? The main reason I wanted to do EE was because I want to work in industry and I'm also fairly certain I would just stop at a bachelor's. Any thoughts?
