Hey, Sergio. Did you earn it?

These rules apply only to students at UCSD who wish to switch majors into one of the selective majors. The four things that will get you a point in the scoring rubric are

3.0 GPA
California resident
Pell Grant
First generation student

The college administrators will discriminate in any and all imaginable ways they cdn get away with. Other than academic merit

Beginning next year, certain “selective” majors (such as biology and most engineering degrees, including computer science) will have a special selection criteria at UCSD. “The selection criteria for entry to the major will consider academic achievement in the specified screening courses and will also be aligned with UC San Diego’s priorities of serving California residents, first-generation college students, and students from low-income families.”

Oh brother. I graduated from UC San Diego in 1989 with a double major in Math and in Computer Engineering. Way to devalue what used to be a highly regarded engineering college.

As a 1976 graduate of Revelle College, UCSD with a BA in Molecular Biology, I'm embarrassed at the behavior of my alma mater. Pleas for financial support from alumni go straight to the recycling bin as long as they embrace DEI and discrimination over admission by merit.
