UCSD, UCSB, or UCI??

<p>I was originally only going to need to decide between UCI and UCSB but UCSD unexpectantly accepted me!!!</p>

<p>UCSB- Admitted for pre-biology (Got into the major I applied for, but the school doesn't offer any engineering majors that I am interested in if I were to change my mind on biology.)</p>

<p>UCI- admitted for biomedical engineering- pre med (the major I really want)</p>

<p>UCSD- admitted (undeclared), but I applied for biology so I got rejected from that major? All biology and engineering majors are impacted here, and I really wanted to be a biology (pre medical) or engineering major, so this is a problem!!! I am afraid I wont get in...</p>

<p>The school that I want to go to the most is UCSD, but I am concerned about being undeclared. I dont really see the point in going somewhere if I cant do what I want</p>

<p>I thought in UC schools you could change your major easily, but the more I read, the more I doubt this. </p>

<p>I know its ultimately my decision, but any opinions??</p>

<p>Not all engineering majors at UCSD are impacted; just bioengineering, aerospace, and mechanical. </p>

<p>You can be pre-med with any major (you could choose chemistry/biochemistry, which is not impacted.) If your grades in bio classes are good enough (which they should be if you’re pre-med), then you can switch into biology.</p>

<p>If you’re switching into any non-impacted major, switching majors is done easily through TritonLink.</p>
