Colleges and Universities A-Z Cal Poly Pomona

Hi, i’ll keep this quick and to the point.
I am a CCC student whom is applying for CPP for Fall 2016. I have a 3.55 transferable GPA and I am applying as Biology Major. On the transfer app, it says to choose an alternate major choice THAT IS NOT IMPACTED. Well! All of the majors that are NOT impacted are theatre, history, art etc…Majors that I have NO INTEREST in.

I AM FORCED TO PUT AN ALTERNATE MAJOR ON MY TRANSFER APPLICATION, AND THE ONLY ONES THAT THEY WILL ALLOW ME TO PUT ARE HISTORY/ART/MUSIC ETC
I am afraid that they will see my application and say…Oh Biology is full, we will place him in his alternate major which is history…

What about a major in the College of Agriculture?

I don’t believe listing an alternate major will have a impact on whether or not you get in your first choice.

Hey! I applied with biotech which was impacted as well and was able to choose Earth Science as my alternate major. It’s still in the science department so I am pretty content if I my acceptance is with that major. What did you end up putting for your alternate?
