I did sociology, but got in. Honestly the admission process is so weird.

UCB only let’s you chose one major when applying so if you get accepted then you got accepted into that major
oops sorry just coped and pasted my response from other forums but yes local lol
ohhhh so I got into my major? It just doesn’t say it in the acceptance?
right! my transcript and essays very VERY clearly dictate i am a communication major. im pretty sure that they can see what other majors you applied for at other schools. im hoping this means we have a better chance at ucla.
i heard for freshman, many people get into one or the other
yup i feel the same. i applied as a freshman and got accepted to ucla/rejected by berkeley. i wanted redemption but i guess not 
I had no idea I applied for spring, do they choose for you?
dang, they really said “no…we remember you”
berkeley is brutal
It’s harder to get into UCLA, that’s awesome
