What kind of weird, thinly veiled racist rant is this? Get off the internet.

???

Why on earth are you categorizing people by their race? And why are you counting them? It's just weird. The kind of thing that losers with way too much time on their hands would do.

Ok, out of 8, only 1 made it.
Forgot this is a lefty platform.

Yeah those darn whites, always messing it up for the rest of us. /s

Or, none of the above. . .

Michigan is top 5 or 10 in just about every Major it offers. That is elite.

Michigan is elite at sucking tuition out of undergraduates and using it to pay for research that doesn't benefit those undergraduates.

If only UVA could dream of being a research powerhouse.

+1 there's about 30 elite schools in the country. JP Morgan CEO went to Tufts so yes Harvard might be MORE elite but the others are still part of the elite group.

UVA is definitely a step down academically from UCLA, UCB, and Michigan.

This is a decent list

It's a decent list only if UMBC is in it. Their HS GPA is 3.9. You can't tell the difference between Stanford and UMBC.

Which is why UVA attracts so many undergraduates nationwide. It’s smaller and more attention is paid to the undergrads.

Yeah, “something total idiot”!!

Penn State is just another name for UPenn. It’s all part of the same system, just one is the flagship and the other is a satellite. But you can take classes at either, and it’s all Ivy.

Not. Michigan has way more undergraduates from OOS and internationally with about the same admit rate and academic scores as UVA. The difference is that Michigan has virtually no academic weakness. UVA is not in its league for STEM and many other disciplines as well. You do realize that universities like Columbia have way more graduate than undergraduate students right? Nobody ever says Columbia is more graduate focused, even though it most definitely is. Face it, Michigan is a top 25 university worldwide, UVA is not even in the top 100. Eliteness goes beyond the state borders of Virginia.

UMich is still in the Midwest so it will always be inferior to east and west coast schools. Stay pressed. Also the average starting salaries are almost identical, so these “top programs” at UMich mean complete shit LOL

Hahaha UVA is not an east coast school. It’s a rural southern school. You are so delusional and lack so much self awareness, laughably so.
