there are 6 total pre-reqs for poli sci at ucla, but only the completion of 3 is officially required. at the community college that i would be coming from, only 4 are offered. i already took one of them in a previous year (at community college, so this would fulfill that course requirement), and i plan on taking the other 3 that are offered. the other 2 i can take at ucla.
as for econ, i’m not sure if i want to pursue that route yet. even though i did want to double major in it, ucla requires that transfer students who plan on majoring in econ apply to the school as an econ major; they aren’t able to switch into the major once at the university. while i could choose to do this and then double major in poli sci (ucla does allow transfer students to declare a poli sci major later on), it would decrease my chances of gaining admission to the school—i don’t know if it’s a risk i want to take.
