Is it worth the risk to go undeclared and try to switch into computer science?

Here is the link for changing majors: https://engineering.ucsb.edu/undergraduate/academic-advising/change-major-college-engineering

Other than UC Davis, do you have any other options? If you do not get into CS at UCSB, will you be happy in another major?
UC to UC transfers are definitely possible but if you cannot get into UCSB’s CS program, you may not be able to get into a CS program at another UC either.

The other option is to consider community college and then TAG to UCI, UCD, UCSC, UCR or UCM for CS. TAG is not available for UCSB Engineering, UCSD/UCLA or UCB for any majors, but you could still apply as a regular transfer.
