Depends on the college.

At some schools, you have to apply in to some highly competitive majors, programs, or department. For example, at the University of Pennsylvania, you have to decide on where to apply, FAS, Wharton, SEAS, or specialized programs that combine more than one school at the University like The Jerome Fisher Program in Management & Technology (M&T).

At other schools, Yale for example, everyone applies to the undergraduate College, and you don’t have to formally declare a major until the end of sophomore year regardless of your major or program.
