Carnegie Mellon Essay

Hi, the supplemental essay for Carnegie Mellon is:

Please submit a one page, single-spaced essay that explains why you have chosen Carnegie Mellon and your particular major(s), department(s) or program(s). This essay should include the reasons why you’ve chosen the major(s), any goals or relevant work plans and any other information you would like us to know. For freshmen applying to more than one college or program, please mention each college or program to which you are applying. Because our admission committees review applicants by college and program, your essay can impact our final decision. Candidates applying for early decision or transfer may apply to only one college and department.

Do I have to talk about just my first-choice major or should I mention my 2nd and 3rd choice majors as well?

You should mention your 2nd and 3rd choices if you want admissions to know why you want to be in those majors.
