<p>It asks you to list a alternative major. Does this mean that they will consider the applicant for two seperate majors…</p>
<p>For Example:
if my first major choice is: Physics
-and i dont get in</p>
<p>will they consider me for my second choice major.</p>
<p>Thanks A lot!</p>
<p>Your major will not matter at all if you are applying to Letters & Science(s).</p>
<p>While there is a single UC application, the procedures, rules and admissions process itself are exceedingly different among the campuses. Even in a campus, different colleges have their own rules and thresholds. </p>
<p>The answer above appears to be oriented to UC Berkeley, where the College of Letters and Sciences does not admit students to particular majors, instead expecting them to declare a major somewhere around the end of second year or beginning of third. However, applying as an engineering major instead of as a psychology major puts you in a different college and under stricter admissions standards. Thus, the major you list does have an impact in most cases.</p>
