Impacted/Selective Majors for 2021 Application Cycle

Thanks, Gumbymom. I was able to find the UCSD info, like you showed. But the problem is that I can’t find anything similar for the other UCs and I got the impression, based on the thread I read last year, that that info was available on the UCs websites.

Here’s the link to the post from last year, with the majors for each campus.

The reason I’m interested is because I want to apply to mechanical engineering, which is already a capped major at all the campuses (and one that, like everyone on the planet, I’m in no way confident I’ll get into).

I was going to choose physics as my second choice, but, like on the UCSD website, it is also capped. So choosing 2 capped majors would guarantee I’d be rejected and so I’d rather choose an uncapped second major, like chemistry, or even undeclared, so there’s a better chance I’ll get in. I like physics, but there are other choices I would be happy studying, too.

So that’s why I was hoping to find an updated version of the other list.

Thanks
