I was unable able to find specific information about how UCLA uses your choice for an alternate major. Is an alternate major only considered within each separate school or can you give an alternate major from another less selective school.

For example, I want to do engineering but also want the chance to go UCLA if I don’t get into Samueli. Should I put Mechanical Engineering (Samueli) as my first choice and Physics (L&S) as my second? Or will UCLA not consider an alt. major in L&S if my first choice is engineering? Do I have to put an alternate major that is within Samueli?
Thanks so much!
