Hey folks! I'm planning on applying to UCSB for computer engineering and I was wondering if anyone knows the acceptance rate for this major. I want to make sure I have a good shot before I start working on the application. Thanks in advance!
Hello! UCSB doesn’t officially publish acceptance rates for specific majors, but given the popularity of the computer science major all across higher education right now, you can assume it’s lower than the university’s overall rate of about 26%—although how much lower is difficult to say.
To maximize your chances of getting accepted, focus on having a strong application that showcases your academic performance, extracurricular involvement, and commitment to the field of computer engineering. Consider participating in clubs, internships, or projects that demonstrate your passion and skills in this field.
Good luck with your college applications!
