changing major?

I applied I believe under the pretense of going to graduate school for Physics. However, I have since found more interesting offers in Materials Science programs.

How should I address this? I was an undergraduate physics major with a transcript I believe SMART will find useful.

Question is, should I try to address this change now or wait until I do (if I do) receive an offer?

You will have to deal with it after; you can't change anything except your contact info once the application is submitted.

Once you get accepted, they are accommodating with that sort of stuff.

Make sure the application process understands what you need. If your major has changed....... change your major now. Honesty is always the best policy
