We report experimental and numerical studies of the magnetotransport in a four-probe square quantum dot. Low-field magnetoresistance is dominated by the classical ballistic electron trajectories traversing the dot. Scanning the Fermi energy we find periodic conductance oscillations superimposed on these classical effects. Theory shows that, at the given Fermi energy, transport through the dot is effectively mediated by just a few eigenstates of the corresponding isolated square. This holds even in the case of many propagating modes in the leads. The geometry of the injecting leads plays a decisive role in the selection of a particular set of eigenstates of the square. This defines a specific period of oscillations observed in the experiment.
