Am a School Board Member and a trial attorney and your words are absolutely true. It's a balance of an effective application strategy with the veneer of good faith and fair dealing b/c a college's Admissions Committee can tell when its chain is being yanked. The degree of thoughtfulness required cannot be underestimated.
Private sector sentiment over Ivy leagues is getting lower and lower. Poor quality of new graduates. Experience and skill are starting to become much more valued.
Some majors are extremely competitive and also have an entirely different application process. They also require a TON of work to apply and even get an audition. It’s a multi step process. My oldest daughter is a musical theatre major which has an acceptance rate of approx. 3% at her school. The university she goes to has a 75% acceptance rate. She applied to one school where 3000 applied, around 300 were allowed to audition and they admitted 6 boys and 6 girls. She was invited to audition for musical theatre at that school and that was a huge accomplishment! If people think the ivies are hard, try the performing arts.
If a student doesn't know what they want to major in, then the should attend their local community college until they have decided on a career field. That is just common sense.

I think UT offers a Sports Mgmt minor not a major.
