<p>I am a hopeful transfer to NYU, and I was wondering if putting down undecided in the intended major would hurt my chances at all.</p>
<p>I dunno about transfer, it probably depends what year you'll be....But as a fresh. applicant I know it makes absoultely no disavantage to the student to write down "undecided." Most students are undecided at that point, what they want to major in. Just my two cents</p>
<p>its easy to change your major, just pick a really unpopular major to try to get it (may help), then change once you get here.</p>
<p>why dont you just pick a major to put down? you dont have to stick with it at all</p>
<p>from the way my mom was yelling at me when i told her i was goign to put down undecided on my apps, i guess she believes that it hurts your chances</p>
<p>i chose physics as my major and almost got into all my schools (except cornell) so i definitely think putting down physics as my major helped me get into schools</p>
<p>Freshman admission, it doesn't matter much but with transfer admission, it might. What year will you be in? Chances are they're going to want an indication of major.</p>
<p>I would be transfering as a sophomore, so hopefully it does not apply.</p>
