gollark: That is also not how universities here work. You apply to a course, and do that, and can maybe transfer but it's hard.
gollark: I am not in "America". We do A-levels here.
gollark: I have a rough idea. I don't know enough to narrow it down beyond physics/maths/CS/engineering.
gollark: I do university applications in about 5 months and haven't decided on anything yet. What joy.
