Changing Majors during junior year

<p>So I might be accepted as a transfer student next year as a Poli Sci major.</p>

<p>HOWEVER, I have recently started thinking about changing my major to Computer Science, and am taking a couple math classes and programming classes to see if I like it. If I do end up getting accepted to UCLA, and also end up liking the CS classes, would I be able to change my major to that once I arrive at UCLA? Or do they not allow that</p>

<p>so it looks like if I didnt apply directly to that department I cant get in?</p>

<p>i think pretty much...as a transfer, i think you're very limited when it comes to switching majors...</p>

<p>COmp Sci is in the engineering school so you have to get directily into that major otherwise you can do math-computation or linguistics/comp sci... </p>

<p>You can change majors... there is just some impacted majors they do not allow you to change to.</p>

<p>ok cool, thanks.</p>

<p>so does anyone know anything about those two majors(math-computation and linguistics/comp sci)? Would that help me have pretty much the same career prospects as a CS degree would?</p>
