'Academic programs..'

<p>No this is not a thread to gather ideas.</p>

<p>I am in the midst of writing my Cornell Supplement (CAS) and was wondering what the prompt meant by 'Academic Programs'. I discussed interests of mine and fields of study that I am intrigued by (I.E. Psychology, philosophy..), but what are these programs I should be writing about. Are the aforementioned majors not academic programs? Are they simply majors and there is a difference? </p>

<p>Please help. Thanks.</p>
