Easiest Major to Get into UCI

I'm applying to UCI and I'm not really sure what major to choose. Which major do you think is the easiest to get into at UCI?

While I understand it might be tempting to choose a major based on its perceived "easiness," it's essential to remember that you should have a genuine interest in the subject. Passion and skill in your chosen major contribute significantly to your academic success and future career opportunities.

That being said, it's worth noting that acceptance rates for different majors at UCI can vary. Generally, highly popular or competitive majors such as computer science, engineering, and biology tend to have lower acceptance rates due to the high volume of applicants. However, this does not mean that those majors are necessarily more challenging than others.

Instead of focusing on finding the easiest major, it might be more beneficial for you to concentrate on your interests and strengths. By selecting a major that aligns with your passion and aptitude, you are more likely to enjoy your coursework, excel in your studies, and ultimately graduate with a degree in a field that you'll be eager to build a career in.

Also, don't forget that UCI does allow for undeclared students. You can apply as undeclared/undeclared, and then take advantage of the resources available on campus to explore various fields and their requirements before officially declaring a major.

In summary, it's not necessarily about finding the easiest major but rather finding the one that suits you best and aligns with your interests and career goals. Focus on what you enjoy and are good at, and demonstrate passion and capability in your application, which will enhance your chances of admission. Good luck!
