<p>If you are deferred from your first major but accepted to second major will they defer you or accept you under 2nd?</p>
<p>Kind of worded poorly, but if I know what you're talking about I was wondering the same thing.</p>
<p>lol yeah...well i'll make it clearer for other ppl</p>
<p>i applied to biology for first choice (really hard)</p>
<p>animal science 2nd choice</p>
<p>so if i'm deferred from biology will i just be deferred...or will i be accepted to animal science</p>
<p>I am not quite sure how this works but... I think if you don't get into your first choice major rigth away, it goes to your second choice, and if you get into your second choice you would be accepted to your seccond choice. Now i'm not sure what a deferral would mean... </p>
<p>I guess it could mean you got rejected from your first choice, but you would be considered for your second choice. Then i'm not sure how it would work if you didn't get accepetd right away into either, do they go back and decide if they are going to defer you? And if you are deferred, do they reconsider you for your first and second choice major all over again?</p>
<p>yeah..so weird...im scared that i'm gonna get deferred from biology instead of accepted to animal science haha</p>
<p>you get accepted/deferred/rejected from the university, not from your major. you choose your major once you get to school.</p>
<p>That won't happen... otherwise there would be little point of choosing a second major unless you were completely unqualified for the first.</p>
<p>in CALS you apply to a major, shizz</p>
<p>I only applied to one major with no second choice listed, but if you're accepted/rejected/deferred it's with regard to the university as a whole. If Cornell doesn't accept you to your first choice and accepts you to your second, you will be accepted, to your second choice. I don't see the point of that, as you can easily switch majors once you get here. I don't know anyone who is in a second choice major, though, so I'm not really sure how often Cornell accepts people to their second choices.</p>
