CMU的小秘的话靠不靠谱

前几天发邮件分别给cmu化工系的小秘和一个负责招生的教授，因为我之前拿到的cmu的ad是course-oriented的项目，想询问去那边变成thesis-oriented的可能性，结果两个人给我的答案还挺有出入的. 贴出来，求指导意见
小秘的：At this point, you cannot switch to MS, however, in the Fall, you can go through the advisor selection process with the MS students and as long as there is enough availability of research spots, you should be able to switch then.


教授的：There would be no problem for you to switch between the MChE and the MS in ChE programs.  This happens frequently. I certainly understand your interest in participating more in the research activities of the department.  Research is much more fun than taking classes.


我看他们网站上硕士30个都是放一起的，所以想知道下面一步该怎么办，学校一般不会为了招生应付的吧。个人觉得能读两年最好就读两年的ms了。

这个也是分学校而论，有的学校很好转，有的学校很难转，建议你问一下CMU上届学长
