[quote=Anonymous]I think the answer varies depending what we are actually asking: Are we asking which US universities the average 18 year old kid in Europe/Asia/South America etc has heard of? Thinks are cool or famous or good? Or are we asking which US universities are well known and respected by academics in other countries (who make postgraduate admissions decisions) and by large firms and other employers who tend to hire mostly from top universities in their own countries? If it's the first question, the list will be short; international students who don't got to HYP, Stanford, MIT and a tiny handful of other schools will face bewildered peers if they apply to or attend colleges beyond this tiny list. If it's the second question, the list will be much longer. Major law firms, consulting companies, investment companies, academics and so on, all over the world, will be familiar with the top 25ish US universities and at least some top liberal arts colleges.[/quote]
