Use caution in drawing conclusions from this information.
Consult with the admissions office for additional information. The data should be used as a general guide to selectivity and not as a predictor of an applicant’s chances for admission to a particular campus and/or major.
Click on categories (i.e., broad discipline, campus, fall term) to make a selection. The bar graph on the top left displays a comparison of the selected group to all campus applicants. The table on the top right will display a comparison across campuses by broad discipline.
While freshman applicants to UC indicate a proposed primary and alternate major for each campus, major choice is generally not a factor in freshman admission. Some campuses and colleges, however, do admit students directly into individual majors or may offer admission to a student in a different major (including undeclared) than the one(s) originally chosen in the application. Also, students may change their major between the time they are admitted and when they enroll at a campus. (Note that these differences are not reflected on this dashboard.) Several majors across a campus, possibly in different schools/colleges, may be grouped together, which may mask the differences in the degree of competition for admission among them.
Figures may not match campus data exactly due to definitional differences and the timing of reporting.
