<p>I was admitted into the college of business last month.
So basically I'm confused, does this mean that i can major in accounting, or do i have to compete with other applicants to be able to major in accounting?
HELP, because this is very important, as if i'm not guaranteed into accounting major, i dont think i'll atttend uiuc.
But i really want uiuc's accounting, #2 in the nation baby</p>
<p>After your freshman year, you’ll be able to declare your major in the college of business. As long as you don’t fail your freshman year classes, you can easily declare accounting as your major.</p>
<p>so I can get into accounting without competing with others for a spot in accounting department?</p>
<p>As long as you are in the college of business and you don’t fail your freshman classes, you are guaranteed to major in accounting</p>
<p>To add to the other comments, once you are in the college of business you can pick any major within business and even change an unlimited number of times. The one exception to this is in the Supply Chain management major which you need to qualify for (which is different than competing). Declaring/changing majors is a simple process of filing out a form and having your advisor sign it. </p>
<p>On our recent visit for admitted student day, one of the business students on our panel session had changed his major 4-5 times. All of them had changed at least once, except for the freshman who still had not declared within business.</p>
