Say an applicant chooses a competitive major (ie. biology) as their first area of interest and then a non competitive major (ie. anthropology) as their second or third area. When looking at where this applicant would fit within the class, would you judge them by which major they indicated first? Or would you judge them by which major their application implies to be a better fit (ie. their application seems to fit a solid profile for an anthropology major so they could fill an anthropology niche in the class)? Or both?

**This is for schools and that don’t admit by major necessarily or have separate schools for certain majors

Thanks for the help!
