California college match question

<p>OP, </p>

<p>Is money an issue? What about any religious affiliation? Pt. Loma Nazarene has a gorgeous campus and I imagine there are more than a few skateboarders there. It’s not cheap, though.</p>

<p>sbjdorlo, Money is an issue but we are going to try our best and see what we can afford for DS.
Thanks to everyone for taking the time to respond.</p>

<p>Another newbie question, on the college application form, do students get to enter their first choice major, followed by second/third choice? Or does the form only allow for one top choice major and if you dont get it, you lose your chance to get admission in that college?</p>

<p>Regarding intended major for freshman applicants, different schools and different divisions (e.g. College of Letters and Science, College of Engineering) may do it differently.</p>

<p>Some may admit freshman into a major, and may or may not consider a backup major. Changing major later may require applying to change, as well a completing prerequisites for the new major.</p>

<p>Others may admit all freshmen as undeclared, or undeclared within the division, to declare a major later after completing the prerequisites. Sometimes, popular majors require applying to declare.</p>

<p>Still others may admit both declared freshmen and undeclared freshmen.</p>

<p>You need to check each school and division to see what applies to that school and division, since it is not always obviously announced.</p>
