<p>Does this mean I was admitted into Civil Engineering? </p>

<p>It's been so long that I didn't even remember that I even had an alternate choice but I did apply to major in bioengineering.</p>

<p>It means you were rejected for bio but then admitted for civil.</p>

3

<p>Did you pick an alternate major on your app?</p>

<p>So weird that my stats were high and I was just deferred from business and not even give an alternate admittance :(</p>

<p>Yes, you were admitted to your alternate choice - Civil Engineering, not Bioengineering.</p>

<p>@soccerdude, you were deferred until regular. Sounds like you are being considered for business, and you will be admitted to Business or your Alternate, but not denied or waitlisted.</p>

<p>If deferred from business and not given alternate at this time, it means you are still being considered for business and will receive final decison in Feb, Business defers a lot of applicants (a higher percentager than other college) in the early action round and the fact that you did not get alternate choice or a rejection (which many do during the early round) should be taken as a positive.</p>

<p>As to engineering, anyone who applies for bioengineering is told to put a second engineering choice on app – bio is the hardest to get into and many that applied to it will end up with their alternate engineering choice.</p>

<p>Guys, I have been deferred and I enrolled as an Biology Undeclared major, what do you think this means? any help? :(</p>
