<p>If I am applying to Computer Science and Business Administration as my first choice major (which would require getting into Viterbi) and putting undecided as my second choice major (Dornsife), would a rejection from my first choice major mean rejection from the school altogether, or will they move on to my second choice and consider offering admission to Dornsife?</p>
<p>This question was addressed very specifically in the information session that we attended at Viterbi last month. The head of Viterbi admissions said that if Viterbi did not think you were a good candidate for engineering your application would go back to the main admissions pool and that you would be considered for Dornsife without any prejudice (after being turned down as not being a fit at Viterbi). Put another way, USC/Dornsife would look at your application as if you’d never applied to Viterbi.</p>
<p>Hope that makes sense.</p>
<p>Thank you for the reply! Yes, it makes sense.</p>
