<p>I am a biology major and I'm applying for Fall 2014, I am scared that since I won't have calculus when I apply that I won't be accepted. I talked to the admissions office in San Antonio and the advisor made it seem like I'd be automatically rejected for not having it.. Should I change my major all together? I was going to put COLA - psychology for my 2nd major, but she also said that it was reeeeally competitive so I had to have at least a 3.7. (Which is manageable, but there's still that chance that I won't) Should I put UGS instead? Or change psych to my 1st major and UGS as my 2nd..?</p>
<p>i have the same problem!</p>
<p>You might be surprised but there are schools in Texas that don’t have calculus classes at all.
You probably misunderstood the admissions office in San Antonio. It was probably about calculus readiness .</p>

<p>Thanks @Ya Ya, the only problem is that I will be transferring from a CC. I’ll have my Pre-cal and I’ll be taking Calc 1 over the summer, but I really don’t want to be rejected for not having it when I apply. If I don’t have it will they automatically look over my app or will they look at all of the other stuff that I have to offer? Is the calculus requirement for Bio, or just Environmental?</p>
