Change of Majors

<p>So, I applied to 2 UC's as latin american studies, and 3 of them for spanish/portuguese. I'm thinking of switching them all over to latin american. Is this not a good idea if I have already done a personal statement pertaining to spanish, or would it help because it's basically the same family of majors?</p>

<p>And, is it still possible to change majors for fall of 2010? Thanks!!!</p>

<p>essays only matter to UCLA and UCB. as long as u signed TAG with the other ones, it wouldnt matter if u wrote ur statements about spanish. which 3 are u trying to switch</p>

<p>if its really bugging you i would suggest calling each school that ur trying to change, and ask them what the procedure is, but I wouldnt worry about it too much, u can always change ur major AFTER u get in.</p>

<p>@laker: I would, ideally, wanna switch UCLA, cal, and santa cruz (because I just checked into santa cruz’s language studies major and it is very linguistics focused, and I’m not so good at that haha.) I have no tap/tag anything, I could’ve but I didn’t have all my english classes done for fall, and other little req’s they needed by fall to check it off.</p>

<p>@calbearguy–you can!?! I thought they said once you’re admitted you’re d-o-n-e! (which is what freaked me out in the first place, b/c I felt very pressured ah!)</p>

<p>yes u can, as long as u have all the pre-reqs, or nearly all the pre-reqs, for the major ur trying to switch to, and its usually much more feasible if the two majors are in the same college, and im sure urs are, so ur good to go. plus the major ur trying to switch to isnt even impacted so im sure ull be able to switch over.</p>

<p>granted, this is if i even GET in haha. We’ll just have to wait and see.
are you there now?</p>

<p>I just decided to switch my major too (I only need to take one more pre-req to do so an the teacher said I can add). Does anyone know who we e-mail/call/write to inform the schools you want to change your major on your app?</p>
