I was accepted into my second choice major… First choice was ChemE, Second choice was PetE.
Initially I thought this was weird because historically PetE was more difficult to get into (according to transfer-in stats etc.).
Originally when I applied I had PetE as my first choice and ChemE as my second choice. Sometime before the application deadline I requested a change of major on MyStatus to switch my first and second choice majors. On MyStatus it seemed as though the request processed completely, but I am questioning this now because of your post. I want to go into ChemE but was just happy at the moment to be accepted into Cockrell. If your assertion is correct that only first choice majors were considered, then my request for a change of major never materialized, and I was accepted into my original first choice major, PetE.
Should I contact admissions?
