<p>I was accepted yesterday into the “Undeclared - Physical Sciences major.” However, I am not completely sure if I want to study the majors listed specifically under the Physical Sciences page here: [UC</a> Davis : More than 100 majors](<a href=“http://admissions.ucdavis.edu/academics/majors_by_c_and_d.cfm]UC”>Majors | UC Davis)</p>

<p>These include: Atmospheric Science, Hydrology, Applied Physics, Chemistry, Geology, Natural Sciences, and Physics.</p>

<p>I would, however, not mind majoring in any courses in the College of Letters and Science. It’s just that since I applied in November, I have really expanded my taste for other subject areas.</p>

<p>[UC</a> Davis : Undeclared and Exploratory Majors](<a href=“http://admissions.ucdavis.edu/academics/undeclared.cfm]UC”>Undergraduate Admissions)</p>

<p>There it says that “students accepted in any of the undeclared major options are automatically enrolled in the respective college’s academic program (Academic Options Program),” which for me is the College of Letters and Sciences.</p>

<p>Does that mean that by the time I declare a major, I can declare one in a different field (for example, Psychology in the Social Sciences field) even though I applied as an undeclared physical sciences major?</p>

<p>Any help and clearing up would be great!</p>

<p>Same question, but I would like to switch from undeclared humanities to a science major due to a change in thought.</p>

<p>yes, you can switch from college to college. :] </p>

<p>my housemate switched from a major in the college of bio sci to a major in the letters of arts and science.</p>

<p>i do believe you have to get at least a 2.0 in your current major for the switch to happen, though, if i recall correctly.</p>

<p>How long do we have to wait to switch? First quarter? 1 year? 2 year/</p>

<p>You can definitely switch majors within two years because the first two years of college is practically completing all you General Education requirements.</p>

<p>hi, im attending davis this fall as a freshman and was wondering if i can switch my major now? or do i have to stick with it…and then switch it after 2 years?</p>

<p>To everyone: you can witch your majors at the earliest winter quarter, but some majors may require you to complete some of it core classes before you are allowed in.</p>
