Question
Hello!

I was wondering-I am a physical geography major in college but have a serious love of meteorology.  It is too late to transfer, but I figure I can begin in-depth studies of meteorology during graduate school.  To do this, would a serious load of extra physics, mathematics and some computer science courses be enough to jump-start me to that dream?

Answer
Hi Jacob

I think it probably depends upon the school you were thinking of attending. I would find out from that meteorology department their recommendations. This site should help you:
