<p>On the admissions decisions from the application status page, does it state if you were referred to Division of General Studies or not? I applied to Engineering and got rejected, but I have a hard time believing I was not at least referred for general studies since I seem to be near the 70th percentile of the school overall. Is the Division of General Studies referral Admit - Alternative Choice?</p>
<p>I'm just unsure of if I should appeal the decision for the Division of General Studies or not.</p>
<p>If rejected for first choice, they will consider you for DGS if you checked the box on the app. If on-line shows admission was denied, it won't necessarily point out that you were considered for DGS even though you were. If site shows "Admit--Alternative Choice" that means you are admitted to DGS.</p>
<p>^Yeah, he is correct. You would have been considered for DGS if you checked the box on the application. If you had been admited to DGS it would have stated "Admit- Alternative Choice." You may want to appeal the decision...</p>
