Last December I applied for physics PhD positions in the US. In my personal statements, I mentioned my research interests as well as specific faculty I'd like to work with. What happens if I receive an offer of admission from a school but decide that I'd prefer to do research in a different subfield of physics, under the supervision of a different person?
More context: I originally wanted to work in theoretical particle physics (experimental as a second choice), but my current MSc research is in gravity and cosmology (theoretical). I'm enjoying it so much that I'd like to switch. How acceptable would this be?
