Should You Apply to a Less Competitive Major to Get Into a Top School?

Short answer: Some people do. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Longer answer: While I understand the reasoning, being happy studying at a top non-Ivy school is better than being miserable at an Ivy. If you want to study entrepreneurship, don’t apply for Econ.

Fun fact: Study what you’re passionate about learning in college and doing as a career.
