<p>I recently got into UCLA as anthropology major. But now i want to change my major to Economic B.A
I saw that it is not allowed for transfer student to change to Econ major once I got in, is it truth?</p>
<p>If I cannot change my major once I got in, can I do double major, both anthropology and economic at the same time? Or it's impossible as well?</p>
<p>thank you kindly</p>
<p>You can only change into a non-impacted major so no, you cannot change into econ. It would be pretty vastly unfair if you could do that seeing as tons of qualified people applied to econ got rejected because it is significantly more impacted than anthro. </p>
<p>Double major, I dont know.</p>
<p>assist.org clearly tells you that you cant switch into econ.</p>
<p>idk bout double majors either</p>
<p>Does anybody know what the policy is for switching within a department? Like I have EE right now but I might change my mind to CSE. This website does not mention the two majors so I’m assuming it’s not impacted.</p>

<p>But I thought that you could switch into a major, even if it is impacted, if you happen to have the prereqs for it</p>
<p>for econ no and no</p>
<p>What about switching into History? I know it’s listed as “impacted”, but surely it isn’t as impacted as Econ or Comm?</p>
<p>Did you just decide you don’t like anthro or something? History is more likely than econ.</p>
<p>they won’t allow you to double either because that’d be a huge loophole for people to abuse.</p>
<p>nah dont get me wrong I LOVE ANTHRO
but my parents would like me to major in Econ instead so I was wondering if changing major is possible --now i have an excuse not to study Econ :D</p>
<p>anyway,
do you guys know if I can do double major in UCSD instead?
or if I can minor in accounting?</p>
<p>thanks again!</p>
<p>You should never study a major because somebody wants you to, it’ll lead to you doing worse. Maybe minor in something business/econ related?</p>
<p>No, you cannot change your major in UCLA</p>
<p>OP failed at gaming the system.</p>
<p>So you got into an easy major and expect to switch to one of the most competitive majors? Ha!</p>
<p>I seriously hope you have a true passion for anthropology, otherwise you are going to get owned.</p>
<p>@spiderman2010, UCLAri has some of the best threads on this including a UCLA FAQ in this very forum. It talks about transferring majors and how to go about it. I don’t know much about the impacted/non-impacted major transfer so I’ll stay out of that argument, but it is definitely possible to switch majors once you’ve been accepted.</p>
