Question about deferment/applying under another major

I have found myself becoming more and more dissatisfied with the major I applied to the UCs with and I feel that it is not a good idea for me to attend any of the UCs this fall with a major I would not like. Ive looked up the websites and the potential major I would want to switch is not on the list of acceptable major changes and it usually takes a quarter or 2 just to be eligible to switch. So my question is, would I be able to defer my UCSB acceptance for a quarter or year and take the necessary econ classes in the fall and then transfer, or would I have to reapply this fall for the Fall of 2010? I greatly appreciate the time anyone has taken to read this, thank you.
