<p>Hey guys, I know it must sound dumb to you but since I have absolutely no experience whatsoever in applying I was wondering - should I pick a major before applying or I am entitled to take different classes and then decide for myself which ones to keep and drop respectively ?</p>
<p>Although Yale and other colleges ask about “your interests” they DO NOT require applicants to choose majors – that is something you do at the end of sophomore year. Be honest. Write down which subjects you are most interested in, or if you cannot decide, write undecided.</p>
<p>FWIW: Admissions Directors understand that the majority of students change majors at least once during their four years of college, so colleges don’t hold you to whatever you write down.</p>
<p>Okay,that means the application is more or less an ‘‘open’’ one,right ?</p>
<p>^^ Correct. All students apply to Yale College as Liberal Arts Majors and decide upon a major during their sophomore year.</p>
