[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Michigan ranked ahead of UVA.  [/quote]S[b]ometimes it is difficult to say what USNWR is actually ranking.[/quote][/b]

by one place Mich - tied for 24

As it was last year.[/quote]

Both probably have a better undergraduate experience overall than UCLA and Berkeley, which are ranked higher.  
                   there is no 25
                   UVA -26[/quote]

Since USN&WR decided two years ago that pell grant recipients numbers should be included, UVA was dropped below Michigan but few understand that UVA has no control over the no. of pell grant students it accepts.  Read Pell Grant in wiki if you don't understand.  UVA was no. 1, 2 (tied with Berkeley) or three, with UCLA and Berkeley in the lead for 27 years until the pell grant issue was introduced.  Now it's no. 4 for the last two years for "Top public universities" by U.S. New&World Report. The only reason that Michigan is now above it is due to the inclusion of the "new" pell grant category, a category no school can control.  Michigan has more poor residents per capita than UVA, etc.[/quote]
