Answer
Brutally honestly, it doesn't matter that much what your major is.
To get a scholarship, you'll need a Tier 1 or Tier 2 major (or a Tier 3 as an LREC candidate-but that's the only way as a Tier 3). However it doesn't matter that much what your major is, as long as you do really, really good with it.
So overall, I'd say pick a Tier 1 or Tier 2, and something you can do pretty well with (eg you should be shooting above a 3.5).
