Hello,
So I am a semester away from graduating with my bachelor's in Anthropology. I've applied to four grad schools for biological anthropology with the hopes of going into primatology. It's been my goal since I began college. But over winter break, I went to a primate behavior and ecology field school and was more than a little miffed that I hated it. The methods, the subjects, everything. Maybe it's because we were studying monkeys and I wanted to study apes. I don't know. That field school has put me off the field. I can't get my spark for it back. When I first applied for grad school, it was "oh no, what if I don't get in?" Now it's "oh no, what if I DO get in?" I've been thinking and have some ideas for what else I would like to do. I'm going to do some serious soul searching this summer. My question is, if I get into one of the schools I applied to, would I be able to switch my acceptance to a different program like in undergrad? I doubt it but I felt I should ask. I applied to NYU, City University of New York, Rutgers, and Yale.
Thanks.
