<p>Doesn’t matter that much, one way or the other. It’s not what you list as your prospective major as much as the totality of the application – what you choose to highlight with your extracurriculars, essays, recommendations, etc.</p>
<p>It’s all about trying to look at what you have been interested in and match it up with something Swarthmore might be looking for.</p>
<p>The Theater program offers both a major and a minor. Lots of Swarthmore students double-major every year. How hard that is depends on the requirements for the two majors…some are more time-consuming that others (labs, etc.). Fortunately, you don’t have to decide that until you’ve got nearly two years of college under your belt.</p>
<p>BTW, I don’t know whether submitting a DVD would help or not. The key is to get in touch with the Theater department and ask those sorts of questions. It’s the perfect setup – you get to legitimately snoop around and find out if theater at Swarthmore is right for you while at the same time making yourself known and emphasizing something that might stand out in the stack of applications and demonstrating interest in Swarthmore. You are so close, that it would be easy to do an overnight and set up a time to meet with the chair of the Theater department, do to a Theater workshop class, or whatever.</p>
