<p>I am a community college transfer student and my intended major is Cognitive Science. I am applying to UCSD UCSB and UCLA. I am filing with the TAG agreement for SB and SD but my GPA is a tad short so Im trying to play it safe. I have already fulfilled all of the transfer requirements for the Psychology major at all 3 universities, and I still have a couple to go for Cognitive Science. Im hearing from people that I should apply as a Psych major and then switch when I get there. Is it this a good idea?</p>
<p>you should talk on the phone with advisors in the department at each school to get advice. Cog Sci can be difficult to transfer into and the schools have a stringent set of requirements; see, for example, [Cognitive</a> Science Major for Transfer Students; UCLA Psychology Department](<a href=“http://www.psych.ucla.edu/undergraduate/advising/majors-minors/cogscitransfers]Cognitive”>http://www.psych.ucla.edu/undergraduate/advising/majors-minors/cogscitransfers)</p>
