I asked that question with regards to international business vs. Journalism (broadcast)-the business being a more difficult major there for acceptance. The admissions dept. said because majors aren’t officially declared until end of sophomore year, it really doesn’t matter. Each dept. will take the top students at that time, and then space is considered. However, in order to receive updates from the department you are intrested in majoring under, you must notify that dept. (or put down your interest in terms of major on the admissions application) to receive updates concerning class availability with regards to requirements, aside from the advisor meetings, of course.
