Up until this point, I thought that I wanted to go into CS but now I feel like Business (specifically Marketing) might be a better fit. These are two very different fields I know and I am torn between the two and until I try both I won’t be sure.
Since Buisness is an LEP should I apply to that program initially since it would be harder to transfer into Smith later?
Or should I apply as CS?
Or should I apply undecided?
I know transfer into the Buisness school is extremely competetive but how common is it for people to be able to do that
All things being equal with your interests, personally, I would apply for business since it is extremely competitive both as an incoming freshman and internal transfer. CompSci is not a LEP, so it would be easier to transfer into if you decide to go that route. Consider also that some classes are offered only to students admitted to a specific major, so electing to apply undecided does give you any advantages.
@lonelymoonlight - I agree with @maryversity, a transfer into business is very competitive Here is a link that addresses the Business major internal transfer process.

You might as well try for direct entry first. Good Luck
