Getting demoralized with my school.

I’m so lost and stuck on what to do in college

Hi! I went to a community college and now attending UW. however, when I applied I initially didn’t get into a major, so I thought I’d shoot my shot for CS or Informatics. I told myself my life would finally proceed when I eventually get accepted to a major, but now im thinking it’s a fallacy to believe in this ideology. I’m getting one rejection after the other and to think this is the only the start of my undergrad makes me so demoralized.

UW has capacity constraint majors and you have to apply to each department to get into them. I got denied from CS in fall, and then took some classes here which tanked my gpa, going from a 3.8 to a ~3.5 now. I was no longer interested in Info but during spring (current) I decided to apply to Statistics— I also got denied this morning. I am constantly facing failure after failure, and it’s taking such a huge mental toll on me. I thought coming here would be fun after being stuck at a community college but now I feel like I cant progress in life without even a declared major as a Junior in university. Not smart enough for CS, not doing well enough for Stats— im losing optimism and hope here as i was just about to move in with friends and started plans for the future. I would really appreciate any insight!
