UCI computer engineering acceptance rate?

Hi there! I'm applying to UCI for computer engineering and I was wondering if anyone knows the acceptance rate for this major specifically? I'm kinda stressed about getting in.

Hi! While the acceptance rate for the computer engineering major specifically at University of California, Irvine (UCI) isn't published, I can provide some general information that might help.

UCI, as a whole, had an acceptance rate of around 25.7% for the fall 2023 admissions cycle. This rate varies by major, so it's important to understand that the acceptance rate for computer engineering might be different.

Given that computer engineering and computer science are generally some of the more competitive majors at many universities, you can expect the acceptance rate to possibly be lower than the overall acceptance rate. That being said, don't let these numbers stress you out too much. Focus on submitting a strong application that showcases your passion for computer engineering, academic achievements, extracurricular involvement, and any unique experiences that might set you apart.

Make sure to highlight relevant coursework, projects, or competitions you've participated in, as well as any internships or experiences you've had within the field. By doing so, you can demonstrate your dedication and genuine interest in computer engineering, which will help strengthen your application.

Best of luck with your application to UCI!
