ok heres the situation...

when filling out my college application online the page started out with a curriculum choice (so i chose business) although i really wanted undecided i figured it ws just to see what you were interested in. well then below it i noticed they had a box to check that said undecided so i of course checked it. so question 1. do you think the college is looking at me as undecided or business major?

next problem: when reading on the college website today i noticed it said... High School Preparation:

Candidates for admission must present a minimum of 18 units from high school acceptable to the University. A college preparatory program is required with the following considerations: Two (2) units of mathematics must be presented by all candidates, including elementary algebra and at least one (1) additional unit of academic mathematics, or their equivalents. At least three (3) units of academic mathematics, including trigonometry, should be presented by all candidates who plan to pursue a major in mathematics, the sciences, business administration, or public accounting. At least two (2) units of laboratory science are desirable for all candidates. Foreign language study is desirable for all candidates. A concentrated study in one foreign language is particularly recommended for all students planning to pursue a B.A. degree program. ... the problem being it says that if you have to have 3 units of math including trig if you plan to pursue a major in business administration... PROBLEM! my school didnt offer trig, and although i have 5units of math (alg, alg2, geom, pre-cal, ap cal. i DONT have trig)
2.do you think i will get rejected becuase i dont meet requirements?

additional information: i recieved a letter from the college early january confirming they recieved my application and on it it sates the college i applied to and the curriculum chosen (business administration)... and i didnt call about it becuase i assumed it was just stating my intrest... I SCREWED UP I THINK and now its probally too late to do anyhting about it...

ANYONE WITH ADVICE PLEASE GIVE!!!

Pre-calculus is generally considered trig, I think. You should be fine.

Yeah at most schools trig is included in precalc or alg 2, so if you made it to ap cal you have to have had some trig. Don't worry
