UC Santa Cruz Class of 2022 Applicant Thread

is anyone undeclared in the school of engineering and was planning on declaring comp sci?

@rosecuut: Were you accepted into a “proposed” Engineering major since you cannot be accepted as an Undeclared into the School of Engineering??

In order to be eligible to declare a School of Engineering major at a later date, students must be listed as a proposed major in one of the following:

Bioengineering
Bioinformatics
Computer Engineering
Computer Science: Computer Game Design
Computer Science (B.A. or B.S.)*
Electrical Engineering
Robotics
Students pursuing Network and Digital Technology and Technology and Information Management are NOT required to be proposed in these majors in order to declare them.

  • Admission to the Computer Science majors (B.A. and B.S.) is selective. The Computer Science majors at UCSC are impacted, and in order to pursue either of these majors, students must have been admitted to UCSC as a proposed Computer Science Major. Students not admitted as proposed Computer Science will not be able to pursue either of these majors.

Students who want to keep their proposed status as of their fourth quarter MUST pass Math 19A or 20A, and two additional BSOE classes from the following list within the first three quarters:

CHEM 1A- General Chemistry
CMPE 12- Computer Systems & Assembly Language
CMPE 13- Computer Systems & C programming
CMPE 16- Discrete Math
CMPS 11- Intermediate Program
CMPS 12A- Introduction to Programming
CMPS 12B- Data Structures
MATH 19B- Calculus
MATH 20B- Honors Calculus
PHYS 5A: Intro to Physics I
PHYS 5C: Intro to Physics III

In addition to being a proposed major, students must meet the Major Qualification Requirements for their intended major prior to being able to declare.

All students must declare a major by the 6th quarter.

yea I am undeclared in the school of engineering but I just got the news that I can’t switch into the comp sci major and now i have to debate on either taking computer engineering instead or got to a cc

@rosecuut Look into CS game design. It’s gives you all the skills that you may need for the CS industry even if you don’t want to work as a game designer

Hi, parents and family members of current UCSC students. Just FYI that there’s a UC Santa Cruz Parents Facebook page. Not affiliated with the university. Just a place for newbies and veterans alike to share ideas, questions, and information. I hope you’ll join the group!

do coaches at ucsc have any admission power?
