Psychology Major / 6th College

<p>So I was accepted at UCSD into Sixth College. I was a little upset because when UCSD asks you to rank order of preference, I ranked Sixth last. Other people I know who were accepted got into their first or second choice. I was wondering if your major (mine is psychology) affects which college you get placed in. Also, can you switch colleges?</p>

<p>No, majors have nothing to do with the college you get into. It doesn’t matter what major you are; you can be any major in any college.</p>

<p>Yes, you can switch colleges. But it’s incredibly hard to do. You have to prove that by switching colleges, you will be able to graduate earlier. </p>

<p>Why do you want to switch?</p>

<p>Sixth College was my last choice. Comparing it to the rest its just not very appealing. GEs, location, activities, ect. I mean the college dosent even have a dinning hall or support its students in seeking volunteer oportunites like the other colleges. Ideally I would want to be in Muir.</p>

<p>eh 6th was my 4th choice and i got it booo:[ and i wanted to be in either muir or marshall…</p>

<p>but hmm just be LUCKY that you got into UCSD. so many people got rejected :[</p>

<p>and you never know you might end up liking sixth anyways… and plus we can suffer together if we hate it…and you can eat at other dinning halls…i heard 6th has a bbq grill day once a week :] and so they dont have volunteer opportunities…well we can create a volunteer group for sixth when we get there!</p>

<p>college is what you make of it! is UCSD your 1st choice?</p>

<p>Yeah seriously don’t let 6th college affect whether or not you go to UCSD. Everyone who is in 6th loves it, they are a spirited group and they all seem close-knit due to the layout of the dorms. Be happy, and congrats for getting into UCSD!</p>

<p>Wesley from WongFu went to 6th! I am in 6ths too!</p>

<p>Don’t let it bother you, this college is more tight knit than others, plus it’s near the Price Center. Extra bonus!</p>

<p>the location isn’t that bad… and the GE’s are usually considered the best on campus (well, maybe second to Muir).</p>

<p>Yeah, I mean Im the type of person who wont let it negativly affect my experiance at UCSD, but it still sucks simply b/c it was my last choice. But im so greatfull for sure for getting in :)</p>

<p>TNEsaid – UCSD is not my 1st choice, its my second. But my first is a private school and if i dont get enough finical aid I’ll be at UCSD. And if I do end up at UCSD, we will for sure be making a volunteer group</p>

<p>i also wanted to be in muir but i got sixth. and guess what? I LOVE IT. </p>

<p>the GE’s aren’t as hard as you think
the location isn’t too shabby either. it’s a LOT better than ERC & marshall… trust me. and there are a lot of classes at pepper canyon (which is like literally a couple of seconds from the reshalls) that you take during your first year. don’t worry too much! you’ll learn to love it, just like me :]</p>

<p>yee wesley chann wongfu production bahahahaah! maybe they’ll visit!eeek! gosh i sound like an obsessed fan girl… wongfu is allright…</p>

<p>anywho @marebella i hope you get a good finaid package at ur first choice but if not then ill see you at UCSD and we are definately making a volunteer group. l</p>

<p>lets make 6th college hella awesomeeeeeee :D</p>
