<p>I visited wake forest last summer and really want to go there. I dont have an idea of what i want to do in the future as of now (in a way, i think im suitable for almost every field). I have a 2140 SAT and 3.7 unweighted GPA. I was just wondering what are some of the easier majors to get into, because getting in is the only thing that im concerned about right now.</p>
<p>To my knowledge, prospective major doesn't really matter all that much in terms of admissions. You don't even get to declare your major until the end of your sophomore year, and many, many, many people change their minds about majors between the time they apply and the time they declare. I think that the only thing prospective major is used for is to gather data and, if you visit or something like that, to set you up to meet a professor or sit in on a class from that department.</p>
<p>I know someone who applied to Syracuse and got into their undergraduate but did not get into their journalism school. Other schools have multiple undergraduate schools which may play a factor of if you get into them. Wake Forest has two undergraduate schools: Wake Forest College and Calloway School of Business. The latter you can not apply to until you are a second year. Plus, most people change their majors. I think the statistic was 40% of Wake Forest come in premed and only a few percent actually graduate premed. Furthermore, some of those do not get into medical school. My point is that your prospective major does not matter and it will probably change, because as ginnyvere said, you can't declare until you are a second year. FWIW, I don't think you will have a problem getting in with a 2100+ SAT and a 3.7 GPA.</p>
<p>Mmm, I actually think prospective major matters sometimes. Wake is small - it needs some guarantee that people will fill certain majors. I can name a few majors that only have like 10 or 20 seniors graduating. However - I don't think it is right to chose a school claiming an interest in a major you aren't truly interested in. One of my friends did this - she applied for engineering at a university and got in partially because females are underrepresented at that uni (I'm quoting something she said to me- this is not my own speculation). She really regretted the decision b/c a bunch of professors were anticipating her in their department ... it was a tough let down...</p>
<pre><code> When applying to wake think about what you really enjoy doing. There must be something you are passionate about. Expressing your real and honest interests are the best way to show a college who you are and put your foot into the door :)

<p>With a 2140 SAT & a 3.7 GPA you are likely to be admitted to any major that interests you at WFU. However, your suspension for academic dishonesty probably makes your best chances at a public in-state school. You may not want to waste your money at the other schools you claim as first choice schools. If you are a California resident, the UCs are your best option. Otherwise, if you want to leave California, I think that Georgetown, Emory, Northwestern, WashUStL & JHU are not realistic options diue to your suspension. Stealing a test from a teacher may be viewed as a more serious offense(s) than you think because it involved multiple acts of premeditated dishonesty (theft & cheating on a test). You may not be admitted to the UC system either. Please rethink the schools to which you are applying as any Top 50 National University or Top 47 LAC may not be options for you.</p>
<p>Yeah but WFU only asks for your "prospective major". It's not like we have a bunch of different schools to be admitted to, HS Seniors are just applying to Wake Forest College (the undergraduate component of Wake Forest University except if you are a business major) Even if you are a prospective business major it is a moot point because you can't apply to it until you sophomore year. Furthermore, Wake has so many divisionals that are typically taken during your first and second year, albeit it is lessened (the amount of divisionals), but there are still a bunch and this is generally how students determine what their major will be. I don't know many people who knew right off the bat what their major was. Plus, I believe on my application you could put undecided, so that just compounds the fact that "prospective major" will have no bearing on your admittance to Wake Forest University.</p>
