Is it better to not declare your major?

Applying to College
1

<p>I intend to major in economics, but I'm worried that my relatively low SAT maths score (580) might put some colleges off. </p>

<p>Is it better to not declare my major?</p>

2

<p>Very few colleges require you to mark an intended major. Do whatever you wish.</p>

3

<p>Depending on this November test I am expecting a 620-650 on math (eco major here too.) and am in a similar boat. I am declaring as an eco major regardless.</p>

<p>Any other opinions?</p>

<p>don’t stress about majors</p>

<p>It depends on the school.</p>

<p>Some admit by major, and changing major afterward is not guaranteed. Others admit everyone (or everyone in a particular division, like arts and sciences) in one big pool, and allow changing or declaring majors later easily. Others have some mix of methods.</p>
