Notes on New Freshmen Admissions (1) Starting in Fall 2007, figures for "Registered" students are from the University of California System CSS Third Week Enrollment Census. Previously, these figures were taken from University of California Admissions files. (2) Beginning in Fall 2005, students entering L&S as "Undeclared" had to specify the division in which they would major. As of Fall 2005, therefore, the "Undeclared" category reported here no longer includes each division's undeclared numbers. Those students have been included in the division where they will major.
