Linguistics & Computer Science

I applied for the Linguistics & Computer Science major, and I was wondering how competitive this particular major is at UCLA. I have approximately a 4.77 UC GPA uncapped and a 31 on the ACT. I am hoping the major isn’t super competitive because I don’t want it to hurt my chances, since I am on the lower end for test scores.

what’s ur capped GPA, and are u in-state or OOS?

Hello! My capped GPA should be the max or close to it. I am in-state.

can’t see why they wouldn’t accept you.

For majors into L&S, what major you choose matters zero to your admissions, since you don’t actually declare until sophomore year. Don’t be worried about your major hindering your chances of getting in, you seem competitive already. Best of luck!

jus curious, but why did you choose linguistics and CS instead of plain CS?

Probably because he really wants to go to UCLA and knows his chances are WAY better applying to L&S vs COE
