can i switch from civil to another type of engineering

i'm an offer holder for fall 26 entry. i'm american if that's relevat

I applied to 3 different imperial engineering courses but was only accepted to civil, my least favorite. I want to switch into design engineering. how difficult would that be? i know civil eng has the highest acceptance rate out of the engineering courses, so would they would be less inclined to accepted switches out of civil? i heard switching within departments is easier than moving departments. is there a possibility for me?

sorry guys but i gotta ask cuz im scared.

i applied with a 3.7gpa, but with a downward trend from 3.9 -> 3.6 from 9th to 12th grade. but senior spring might be reallllly bad. i decided to pile all the hard courses to senior spring when “grades dont matter” but welp i may have gone too far. plus im kinda burnt out and have caught a huge case of senioritis lol. it kinda is just my own fault.

majoring in engineering.

5 classes:
- math (A/A-)
- cs (A/A-)
- physics, a subfield not relevant to engineering (B-/C+)
- english (B-/C+)
- history (C)

am i cooked? i unfortuantely kinda dont have the motivation to lock in unless my college threatens recision.
