<p>Hi!
Anyone knows what is the significance of choosing your probable major in the common application? do you have better chances of admission if you select a less favored major over a popular one? In case yes, how easily can you move from one major to another after admission?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance</p>
<p>Your implications are sleazy. It would give you a <em>slight</em> boost, and the intended major has no effect on your actual major. But still, you're conning the admissions office.</p>
<p>That ain't cool.</p>
<p>It actually won't give you a boost.
Majority of the applicants are undecided, so the adcoms don't really bother too much about your intended major.</p>
<p>BTW... what is a less favoured major in your opinion?</p>
<p>IMHO Medieval Studies might be a little less popular than Business Studies, for instance.</p>
<p>it'll help if you can show that you're really interested in your major through your EC's i suppose</p>
