~Choosing Major~

<p>Where do you choose your intended major on Common App?? I couldn't find a drop-down list or anything on the supplement.</p>

<p>It should be in the future plans section or something like that. It’s definitely on the common app itself and sometimes it shows up again in the supplement, although I can’t remember if it showed up on UChicago’s, sorry!</p>

<p>Your ‘intended major’ won’t have a significant impact on your application; it might lend a bit of flavor, but Chicago won’t be reading your application as an ‘Econ major’ or as a ‘CS major.’ Also, Chicago organizes all its undergraduate students into one College, and you don’t have to actually declare a major until the end of your second year, so what major you ‘intend’ on pursuing can and will be easily changed.</p>
