If Wisconsin has a good state flagship, why can’t New Jersey or New York?

It depends on the individual program. Wisconsin is stronger in some areas, while Cornell is stronger in others. Make the comparison when your kid knows what they want to study. Cornell being the lowest Ivy is a bit of a joke among the others. Wisconsin comes out ahead in some areas.

Give me a break. Unless you want to live in Wisconsin or have a free ride would NEVER put these two schools in the same sentence. Don’t kid yourself…The lowest IVY has the most number of programs ranked in the top 3…..pretty interesting….

You have to be joking. Madison is a much nicer place to live than Ithaca and Wisconsin and Cornell are very similar overall academically. Cornell really is not Ivy League material and that is fine, lots of schools are not. Wisconsin takes the lead for some majors.

My son went to Wisconsin over Cornell and loved it. Probably had better job options because of it too.

Cornell vs Wisconsin that is a joke.

Wisconsin in the early 2000s became the it school for NE parents because their darlings couldn't cut it at state flagships or Ivies.

Wisconsin grew into a good business school from that with mommy and daddy in Chicago and NY networking for them.

Is Wisconsin worth it now OOS hell no not with the Trump administration destroying the economy. Financial stupidity if your kid gets into a state flagship as well.

Is it a fun school yes, are the kids smart yep are they as smart as Cornell kids not in any reality. Huge difference in job offers from WI vs Cornell.

I haven’t read the whole 12 pages but Rutgers has a terrible campus compared to the other good state flagships. 20ish years ago the in-state tuition/cost of attendance was more than the out of state tuition at some southern state schools, so they probably lost out on a lot of talented students bc they weren’t competitive on price even for in-state students.

I think other states have raised OOS tuition enough that it’s no longer true.

You are living in the past. Wisconsin is hot among high schoolers. Cornell is the exact opposite. As for job opportunities, let the results speak for themself. We actively recruit Wisconsin grads.

Yes. I'm one of the people pointing out Cornell, bc I grew up in NY state and my school system sent one or two of the smartest kids there every year, and I know my brothers tuition was actually quite reasonable.

But then we moved to NC and I ended up going to a true flagship, Chapel Hill, for almost nothing and with 50 of my classmates. His classmates were all very smart, mine varied. So Cornell doesn't feel similar to a state flagship, though it does share some qualities (like being a good option for middle class families with smart kids, and giving a slight edge and tuition break to kids from the state.)

What cheesehead planet are you living on? Here's some actual data. No one is picking U. Wisconsin over Cornell, unless they live in Wisconsin and it would save their parents a bundle on tuition.
Cornell acceptance rate: 7.36%
U. Wisconsin Madison rate: 43%

Out of state acceptance rates are roughly equivalent. That also isn’t a metric that means much. Compare the quality of graduates instead.

Out of state U Wisconsin Madison is 18%. On no cheesehead planet does that approach the 7% Cornell acceptance rate. And feel sure to provide data showing the quality of UW graduates vs. Cornell. But remember, most college graduates know that your opinion is not the same as data.

Can you provide any data that there is a meaningful difference in graduates? My firm has blacklisted Cornell from our recruitment program after multiple bad hires but is actively recruiting from Wisconsin. The job market is what matters.

Your anecdote does not equal to the job market. I can't believe I need to explain that to an adult, presumably one with a degree. All you have is an opinion...and not a particularly educated one at that. What is obvious is that it's a lot harder to get into Cornell than UW.

You are the one who has provided nothing but opinion. My firm is rather large and has extensive hiring experience with college graduates.

Out of state acceptance into Cornell is not harder. You fail to understand what an acceptance rate means. It often just means more applications from under qualified students, such as international students or students looking for financial aid.

It is getting funny at how biased you are in this comparison while not providing any actual arguments.

Cool story bro. What's the name of your firm? Was the Cornell behavior so egregious that they made their unhappiness publicly known, or do we just need to take your anonymous word.
