Can non-UCLA College (College of Letters and Science) majors be TAP certified?
Non-UCLA College majors such as Engineering, Nursing, Arts and Architecture, or Theater, Film and Television can be certified; however, TAP certification is not considered in the review by the other UCLA Schools for selection. Example: If a TAP certified applicant does not get into Engineering, s/he may be considered for an alternate major in UCLA College if an alternate College major is indicated on the application and TAP certification form and if s/he has completed prep work for the alternate College major indicated. However, if admitted to an alternate major in the College, s/he will not be allowed to change major to Engineering after transfer. Most Engineering majors are not interested in an alternate major. If such is the case, the TAP certification is of no value.
