UC Majors

Hey guys, UCLA has always been a dream school for me. However, I too have always wanted to major in Psychology. Unfortunately, Psychology is an impacted major at UCLA. Does anyone know how easy it is to switch majors at this school. Should I apply for a less impacted major and try to switch or just apply for Psychology? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

are you applying as a frosh or xfer?

Changing into an impacted major can be difficult.

Thanks @Gumbymom! that link made it more clear :slight_smile:
@ucbalumnus what do you recommend I do?

if you are applying as a frosh for a major in Letters and Science your major is not considered in admission to ucla. Read thru “Fall Freshman Selection Process” on the ucla website. I’m not sure where you got the idea it mattered.

oh perfect! thank you very much @mikemac
