second choice 

It isn't what you want the most. But you can live with it if you don't get your first choice.
You can also get second choiced by something you want. Then the decision is out of your hand. They have the power to choose.

Jane got ranked for her job interview. That means she didn't get offered the job. Instead the employers will hire her if the first person doesn't take the job. Jane is their second choice, a fall back option

second choice hamster 

Someone that you would hook up with when you can't get with your first choice. The name is a reference to when you were a little kid and you went to the pet store and you wanted something cute, like a puppy or a bunny or a kitty, but your mom said NO, so you got a stupid little hamster instead.

He's totally my second choice hamster, so I only went to see him for a few minutes after I got with the guy I really like.

University of Second Choice 

University of Southern California. Because a large amount of the student body wanted to attend other, more prestigious universities (especially UCLA) and instead had to settle for USC because of its lower academic standards.

I wanted to go to Stanford, Berkeley or UCLA, but I didn't get into any of those so I'll be attending the University of Second Choice.

University of Second Choice 

1) UCLA.

2) An incorrect nickname given to the USC, University of Southern California, by insecure UCLA students who don't want to admit that they're inferior.

I was accepted to both USC and UCLA, and gladly chose to attend USC.

UCLA was my university of second choice. An inferior safety school. Yuck.
