<p>Hi, I have just been accepted to UCSD with my first-choice major-General Biology. But for the past few months after submitting the application, I realized that I am actually more interested in Human Biology.
Is it true that I only need to delcare my major before completing 90 units (<a href="https://students.ucsd.edu/academics/advising/majors-minors/declare-or-change-a-major.html"&gt;https://students.ucsd.edu/academics/advising/majors-minors/declare-or-change-a-major.html&lt;/a&gt;)? If so, does this mean I don't need to worry about this and can actually graduate as a Human Biology major?</p>

<p>I'm not from the US so I'm very unfamilier with the whole declaring-major process. Any answer or advice would be appreciated! Thanks!</p>

<p>You don’t need to worry about it. You can change your major as soon as you get access to Tritonlink and the change major/minor tool, and you can change your major whenever you want, as long as it’s a non-impacted major (which I believe all of the biology majors are now).</p>

<p>@baktrax thank you so much! just wondering, does this work for all of the UCs? I am choosing between several of the UCs and the flexibility to change majors plays quite a big role here so… of course UCSD is my top choice since it has such a good biology program.</p>

<p>Every UC does things differently, so you’re going to have to look up each school specifically.</p>
