Transfer Students

<p>Is that true?</p>

<p>====Psychology/B.A.====<br>
Listed below are the lower division preparation courses for the major. You
should complete all preparation courses prior to transfer. All courses must be
taken for a letter grade. Transfer students must be admitted as Pre-Psychology
majors in order to major in Psychology. Students originally admitted under other
majors will not be permitted to change their major to Pre-Psychology or
Psychology or to double major in Psychology. For more information regarding this
major and UCLA's transfer selection process, visit <a href="http://www.psych.ucla.edu%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.psych.ucla.edu&lt;/a> and
<a href="http://www.admissions.ucla.edu%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.admissions.ucla.edu&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p>

<p>Per assist.org for UCLA and my current college, check it out for your college.</p>

<p>ah, i c. Sociology major, here is come... Darn, i hope i can switch into that one.</p>

4

<p>r u hating your earth sciences major.</p>

<p>It might be fun!</p>

<p>Switch into my major..... math/econ</p>

5

<p>I don't know much about earth science. People who I've spoken to have given me contradicting opinions of it. SOme have told that they spend like 20 hours a week on one class and need a lot of outside time to finish their labs. </p>

<p>As for math math/econ, i would not want to take another math course in my whole life, other than maybe stats which i will have to take. I don't mind econ.</p>

<p>I am also looking at geography major, since I've never taken a class in these majors, it's also concerning. </p>

<p>THe nice part about these majors is that they both require 2-3 lower devision classes and 12-15 upper devision. </p>

<p>WHihc means it's possible to finish them in 2 yrs.</p>

7

<p>major in russian :) that would be easy.</p>

8

<p>I'd rather major in english</p>

9

<p>eww i would hate to major in any language.</p>

<p>what about international development or something, or do u want something science related?</p>

10

<p>anyone knows how to change the major? Or double majoring? Do we need to fill out any form or anything?</p>

11

<p>yes you have to petition or something to add a major, to dobule major, to change, and to minor.</p>

<p>for double majoring you have to get the approval of both departments and make a DP something, like DPR --degree progress report.</p>

12

<p>I found out that I actually fulfilled many lower division for psychology (only missing the anthr 1), I plan to double major in psychology and Math/Econ (planning to switch from Math/Applied Science). How would I do this specifically? Do I petition right now or after I transfer? If after transfer, anyone could give me more info?</p>

13

<p>You can not enter psychology unless you were accepted to psychology... you can not double major in it either.</p>

<p>for math /econ you petition after you start school.</p>

14

<p>I have to petition for it even though I'm already a math major? I mean Math/Econ and Math/Applied Science are in the same department but with different specialization. </p>

<p>We can't major in Psychology if we are not admitted under that major? aww, that is bad!</p>

15

<p>You have to petition to change it, otherwise they will not know. </p>

<p>you cant just declare it to yourself. you hve to fill out some forms, thats all they mean by petition</p>

16

<p>Are you math/econ major? </p>

<p>What major lower division and GEs have you taken before you will transfer? Be specific as possible...</p>

17

<p>i am math econ.</p>

<p>these are the requirmetns for lower div.</p>

<p>Calc 1
Calc 2
Calc 3
Linear Alg
Diff Eq
Econ 1 Macro
Econ 2 Micro
Econ 3(only at UCLA)--microapplications
Into to C++</p>

<p>I have completed Calc 1,2,3(this spring), diff eq in the summer, and Econ 1 and 2.</p>

<p>So altogether i will be missing C++, LInear, and Econ</p>
