Hi everyone - this is my very first CC post! DD will graduate HS in spring 2019 and she is thinking about where to go to college and what to study. She really doesn’t have a clue what she wants to study (though she can eliminate science/math fields). Her older cousin suggested she just apply to schools with an undecided major. Does this help and/or hurt your chances of getting in most schools? We’re in VA and she has a 4.1 weighted GPA and 1300 SAT. Thanks!
For many colleges it doesn’t matter what you state for your major. For others it’s important because the school may admit by major (like the UCs) or by school within the university. Start surfing the web sites of the colleges and see how they portray the colleges/majors for more info.
