Fall admission data. UC does not publish categories with fewer than 5 applicants or fewer than 3 admits; these appear as "—", and majors with very few applicants are not listed. GPA is the self-reported transfer GPA of applicants. "Pre-" in UCLA major names indicates admission in pre-major status. An admit rate reflects how competitive a major is and does not represent the chance of admission for any individual student.

Set the Major and Campus Combination First, Then Plan Two Years of Courses
A counselor reviews the student’s grades and goals, says whether this route fits, and suggests target campuses, a community college, and a timeline. Families outside the U.S. can meet by video call.
Helpful to have ready
- High school or college transcript
