on application what was the point of putting two majors?

<p>on the application what was the point of putting two majors? Is it so if you dont get into one school you have the chance of getting into the other?</p>

<p>i think if you qualify for your second choice major but not your first choice they will admit you for your 2nd choice</p>

<p>My S was admitted to his second choice major, same school : CNS. He was not admitted to his first choice major.</p>

<p>can you be accepted into your second choice school?</p>

<p>yes! It happens all of the time…although, depending on the school, it is fairly easy to trasfer majors once you get in.</p>

<p>so i just realized i got accepted and into my second choice, the school of undergraduate studies. But Im not exactly sure what that school is. Can anyone tell me? and will i get an official letter in the mail?</p>

<p>wait they released your decision today? are you Out of state?</p>

<p>Undergraduate Studies is sort of like undeclared…you really aren’t declaring a major yet…</p>

<p>yeah im from california. they have not sent a letter out. okay thanks swtcat. so what would i exactly do or am i just doing core classes?</p>

<p>oh wow i thought they weren’t releasing out of state decisions until february? congrats!</p>

<p>thanks! yeah i was thinking feb too</p>

<p>What was your first choice major?</p>

<p>explode…yes, you wil be taking core classes the first two years anyway…just like everyone eles…unless you are transferring in a bunch of AP’s. My D was an Undergraduate Studies major and applied into the Comm school back in October…she found out a couple of weeks ago that she got in :slight_smile: She is a freshman.
By the Way…congrats on the OOS acceptance! D is in state but not top 10%…she didn’t find out until late Febraury…</p>

<p>I think we are at the point when not hearing is a good thing - it means you are still being considered for your first choice. I’m not hearing of any acceptances from McCombs, in particular, except possibly top 1-2%, and very few of those. Does this make sense? Seems they need to look at everyone before making decisions.</p>

<p>Do you know if anyone has gotten liberal arts acceptances yet?</p>

<p>okay thank you everyone. i didnt get into my first choice which was engineering.</p>
