How many 18 year olds really wants to go to Hopkins anyway? |
Exactly Michigan is among the cream of the crop for all engineering disciplines |
Lol fair point, it's not a fun place |
About 38,500. |
There are plenty of social kids at Hopkins, a big chunk of the student body is athletes, |
Michigan is ranked 9th for engineering and Hopkins is ranked 13 th so doesn’t seem that different. In any case, we all know Michigan is hurt in rankings by strength of in state applicant pool. |
Not that it really matters, but Michigan is 6th |
Not this year, it’s 9th, but agree it’s too small a difference to be significant. https://www.usnews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-engineering-schools/university-of-michigan-ann-arbor-02088 |
I'd certainly hire a Hopkins alum. |
You are confusing graduate rankings with undergraduate ones. Michigan is 6th at the undergraduate level. |
The two biggest partiers I know are Hopkins alum- go figure. The sports frats are pretty crazy, but I wouldn't say a huge portion are athletes. Academically it's very challenging. |
38,500 apply and the vast majority would go elsewhere if they were accepted at an elite. |
Hopkins International Relations undergrad program is ranked number 3 in the US. It's not just known for science. And, SAIS its School of Advanced International Studies is ranked #2 in the US s for top master's program for a policy career i |
U Mich Ann Arbor has a 26% acceptance rate which is so much higher than the other top 20-25 schools. Much easier to get into. We have a large number get in from our high school every year---23 last year. |
You're looking at grad school not undergrad, the topic at hand is undergrad |
