Double Major UCLA?

<p>I was wondering if you got accepted into an unimpacted major, and then want to double major with something like poli sci is it possible? </p>

<p>reason i ask is i know u cant transfer into poli sci since it is one of those pre majors. </p>

<p>So what is the deal?</p>

<p>I’d like to know this answer to this question as well…</p>

<p>but yea, I believe it is possible…</p>

<p>i just emailed this question to UCLA b/c i wanted to add an impacted major as well. I’ll tell you as soon as i get a response</p>

<p>if you want to double major at ucla, you have to complete all of the pre-reqs and 2 upper-div classes to be considered…</p>

<p>at the day of the orientation, most of the department advisers will there to answer questions; or you can simply email them. </p>

<p>if you don’t want to follow that route, you can always minor.</p>

<p>personally, i’ve been rejected as a communications major and but was accepted as an anthropology major (socio-cultural). so i came to a conclusion to either double major anthro and comm studies, or minor in film…</p>

<p>does anyone know what shows on the diploma if both majors are in the same college?
ex. Political Science & Economics</p>

<p>How about double majoring in business economics and another major? I’ll email them and post back here as well.</p>

<p>this sounds like great news.</p>

<p>Double majoring basically means that you are “accepted” to the major the same way that a freshman admit is. You complete the pre-reqs, and if you meet the other requirements for the major, you’re in. It’s not difficult outside of a few highly impacted major.</p>

<p>Your best bet is to go to each department and look for the requirements (this skill will serve you very well at UCLA, by the way.)</p>

<p>For biz-econ:</p>

Transfer students in this category must meet one of the following:</p>

<ol>
<li>Have a minimum 3.5 GPA in Econ 11 & 101 and a 3.3 cumulative UCLA GPA.</li>
<li>or Have a minimum 3.3 GPA in Econ 11 & 101 and a minimum 3.5 GPA in Econ 11, 101 and all Economics courses taken by the time Econ 101 is completed (these courses must have Economics 11 as a prerequisite) and a 3.3 cumulative UCLA GPA.</li>
</ol>

<p>For both transfer and non-transfer students to be eligible for the major, you must have completed all of the pre-major requirements with a minimum 3.0 GPA and a “C” or better in each course. Please note that your grade in the writing course is not calculated into your pre-major GPA, but you must earn a minimum grade of “C.”

<p>Read the rest of the requirements here: [UCLA</a> Department of Economics](<a href=“http://www.econ.ucla.edu/undergraduate/majors/bizecon.html]UCLA”>http://www.econ.ucla.edu/undergraduate/majors/bizecon.html)</p>

<p>Double majoring, as a rule, is not “difficult.” It’s just a matter of doing the classes required. When you complete your two majors, it will read “with a major in _____” twice on your diploma.</p>

<p>Um, does pre-bizecon mean your not actually in the program?</p>

<p>I got accepted to UCLA as a biochem major with 3.92 GPA and have finished all the pre-reqs for both the biochem and bizecon major. If I take econ 11 and econ 41 during my first two quarter and do well, am I eligible double major in bizecon + biochem or am I not allowed to double major in impacted majors?</p>

<p>iTransfer,</p>

<p>“Pre-bizecon” means that you are not yet a biz-econ major, and that you still need to meet the prereqs in order to be accepted. </p>

<p>You may major in both impacted majors.</p>
