I want to revamp the different classes so that there is a difference to majoring in biology and art. Say that final project in some courses could be tied to the skill learned, for instance build a robot for robotics class or write a book for a writing class. Literature classes should involve reading/analyzing fiction, painting courses should involve paining and so on. This could either be homework (read Crisis barn) or final project (paint a surreal painting and hand in).
Also, uni should build more skills. For instance if you write a term paper, you develop the skill of the course - but you should need at basic level of writing and research to make it excellent (so that not everyone can write an excellent term paper by just putting in the hours, your skill level in the subject as well as writing and researching should also matter to the quality of the paper). That way making sure you learn skills like writing and researching already as a teenager will matter. For someone with less skills it would take more work (maybe they need to take fewer classes to manage that A+) than someone with high skills from the beginning.
Also uni in game is way too cheap. Yes, the course books cost a fair bit, but a part from my first sim going I haven't bought one and I always nail A+ anyway. There is really never any need to take the loan, not when almost everything is free and going doesn't cost so much.
