Question on calculating CS course offered via engineering school in AACOMAS

Hi,
I went through a search and couldn't find an answer to this, so I'll just post it here.

I was computer science in college and the major was offered through the college of engineering.

Now, on the AACOMAS instruction manual, it says that 'engineering' courses were counted as 'other sciences', but that computer science was 'math'. Since BCPM do not include math, but does include 'other science', my science GPA would differ substantially depending on how computer science is counted.

Are there anyone who had the same dilemma as me? How will my computer science class be counted when it's offered through the school of engineering?

Also, who could I email on AACOMAS for a question such as this?

Thanks! 🙂

So, no one has the same problem as me? 🙁

I am a biomedical engineer that took many electronics and computer programming classes, etc. And I put all those classes under "other science", just seems that they fit better there because they are truely engineering classes and not math classes. it did not affect my GPA calaculation all that much. Best of Luck!

So, no one has the same problem as me? 🙁

My engineering courses counted as "Other Science". The obviously math courses like engineering statistics, were still "Other Science". I had a couple of programming classes, they were still "Other Science". I think everything I had that was from the engineering college was labeled "Other Science". The only exception was an independent study which got lumped into some sort of other/misc category that I can't recall right now.

You can enter it however you like, when it's verified they will have fixed it to their format.
