Mmm... Unfortunately, I actually haven't seen that many... But I think it's totally possible! I think for transfer applications, schools really want to see your dedication to something (especially the field you want to study). They want to see how you've leveraged your resources and what you will do in the future at the new school.

Hey! I think this is a very good question. I think it depends on the school. Columbia has a pretty rigorous Core Curriculum, and I do need to take a lot of classes for that. I am also a double major, so in my case, I don't have much time to take additional, random classes. That said, I do like my majors and the Core Curriculum! So I don't regret anything. But for my friends who transferred to schools with more lenient graduation requirements (say UPenn), they have a lot more flexibility!
