UC application - alternative major

During the UC application process, they asked for us to select a major as well as an alternative one. Does that mean that if we don't get accepted into our primary one, we can still get accepted into our alternative one?

Yes. But be careful if you try to use that as a backdoor to get into the selective campus's impacted major. You might find out later it's hard to change into the major you really want in some cases.

What if we plan to double major? Do we just put one major as our primary major and then the other major as our alternative or is there a seperate box for that?
