Help: Ucla/uc Applicants

<p>So I just found this:</p>

<p>UC Los Angeles Policy on Alternate Major Selection
In general, applicants are not considered for admission to alternate majors. </p>

<p>If I am applying to Business Econ as a major and Econ as an alt. major, does this rule apply?!?
Or do they mean it for people who are applying to Biochem for one major and Scandanavian langauges as another?! </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Another question:
What the heck is the alternate major for then? Seems pretty senseless to me.</p>

<p>when i spoke to the ucla counselor he said alt major is only for tap certified students, who dont get into their first major.</p>

<p>Yes Brownfs is correct, you will only be considered for an alternate major if you are TAP certified</p>
