Freshman grades UC's

<p>@Fysiks, I can only pass along what I’ve read on their website.

The campus does not select students on the basis of academic major or choice of UCSD undergraduate college.

That</a> was what I referred to in my previous post, but looking at the UCSD website that seems at odds with

Admitted freshmen that have applied to an oversubscribed major will be further evaluated by the Office of Admissions and Relations with Schools for admission to the major. Acceptance will be granted to the maximum number of students in each of these impacted major programs. Students who are not admitted to the oversubscribed major are placed into the alternate major they selected on the UC Undergraduate Application, provided the alternate is not oversubscribed.

It’s</a> hard to understand how both can be true. I have no official capacity in any role with UC, so I don’t want to mislead you here. I suggest you contact UCSD directly for clarification, and if you do then post what you find out on this forum. </p>
