While Fenway made good points as usual I would caution you against looking at players who changed majors as a criteria for picking a college. Many students, not just athletes change majors after they start college as they realize their interests change as they mature. My own son changed majors after his soph. year. As a result he took a full load the summer between his junior and senior year online while playing in a wood bat league so he could graduate on time. One of the advantages of taking the courses in the summer versus returning to school for one more semester is that his scholarship was applicable in the summer, it would not have been there for an extra semester.
