UCI waitlist changing majors

<p>My son is exactly in the same situation (applied for computer engineering and got accepted as U/U) . I called their admissions and U/U office and as per them it’s very highly impacted major therefore they don’t guarantee if you are able to get the place in computer specific pre-requisite classes as they all are reserved for major specific students and your chances are only if somebody drop out from those classes or if they offer those classes in summer. As I am not able to get any satisfactory answer therefore I decided to let him go to UCSB (where he is accepted directly in the Computer Engineering). </p>

<p>Please call there admission and U/U both offices to get verify and also post your experience, as last date to accept their SIR office is 13th (at least for my son).</p>
