Got accepted in wrong major!

<p>Hello guys, I know this may sound ridiculous, but I think I accidentally applied for aerospace engineering for ucsd other than mechanical that was the major I intended to apply. I just got accepted by ucsd yesterday in that major. Is there any way to change my major to mechanical engineering?</p>

<p>call the college you were accepted to ASAP and ask them.</p>

<p>it has been done. aerospace is your destiny. you were chosen.</p>

<p>Call them.
…it happen to me, i chose the wrong major on my app, when i got accepted i just switched it online and it was cool. but your major sounds a bit more complicated lol mine is linguistics :D…</p>

<p>The problem is that both Aerospace and Mechanical are impacted, so it’s not as easy as just changing them online. You’ll really need to contact UCSD counselors and plead your case.</p>

<p>im going to talk to admissions of UCSD see if they can do anything</p>

<p>where u really accepted to UCSD this wk?.. im still waiting for the “second” batch to come out</p>

<p>The second batch came out already this week. I am too waiting for the third batch for acceptance.</p>

<p>@monkeydude
Yeah i was accepted this week.</p>

<p>They probably saw your major selection and thought, “Mechanical? What’s this guy thinking? Put him in Aerospace. He can thank us later.”</p>

<p>It’s not a big deal, still accept the admission offer and send your SIR to make sure you get priority funding, and take care of your major after you start. If you don’t accept SIR and take care of your financial aid, they might fix your major but you’ll have to start a quarter late or even worse, next year, because you didn’t take care of your financial aid.</p>
