<p>I was just wondering how many people did this, and if someone was not to do this, would that harm their application? Would the same potential harm apply to applying for a very competitive major?</p>
<p>I'm just curious why they have this option. I'm referring to CAS mainly, but if this applies to other schools, feel free to give your opinion on them too.</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>

<p>DCH:</p>
<p>CAS and Stern applicants don't have to choose a major since they don't apply to a particular major like Tisch and Steinhardt, so I would say it makes no difference what you put down or if you say "undecided".</p>
<p>agree. I put down Econ just in case, by major is something that you declare later on after exploring in college so.</p>
<p>The message is quite clear.</p>
<p>I've seen that. I just think that anything in the application would be taken into account in the admissions process. Just happily wondering..</p>
