As far as adcoms go, they don’t take it into account, period. They are fully aware that you may well change your mind about intended majors once in New Haven.

Does it limit your enjoyment? Depends. I majored in Econ. But I took 11 classes in History. To have doubled majored in Hist would have required that I so the Senior research requirement. The reason I took eleven to begin with is because I enjoyed the work so much. My Econ senior project was enormous so I eschewed the Hist project.

I sometimes think if I could replay my Sr year, I would have majored in both.
