We examine some of the effects on a core collapse supernova if neutrinos had the ability to change flavor. Flavor changing neutral currents (FCNC's) are predicted by some theories for beyond Standard Model physics. We will discuss how neutrino-quark FCNC's are "amplified" due to coherent elastic scattering with the nuclear matter present in the core collapse environment. We will show that this type of interaction has consequences for the supernova model even for ranges of coupling constant strength beyond that of current experimental limits.
