[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What would make Florida better all around than UNC, Texas, Wisconsin, Washington, etc.?[/quote]

Nothing. After UM, Cal and UCLA, these schools and UVA would be the next tier of flagships.

Florida would come in the next tier with Iowa, Georgia, Colorado and others.[/quote]

That is your opinion. That is certainly not US News & World Reports Opinion. And that is not my opinion.  My DC doesn't want to go to the West Coast and coming from OOS it makes getting into the UC schools extremely competitive.  In fact, there was an article recently how they are making it more difficult for OOS students to get into California public universities. As posted earlier in the thread, U of Michigan wait listed and didn't accept lots of strong OOS students.  UVA and U of Florida are easier to get into than Michigan. If you live in MD, getting into UVA is very difficult because the states are literally right next to each other.

Florida is ranked 30 nationally. Its currently ranked below U of Michigan and U of Virginia, but far above UMD and its ranked above others in your list.  Honestly, I think students can get a great education on any of these schools and its the students personal choice as to fit. If a student doesn't like cold weather, Michigan is not for them. If a student wants nice weather in January, University of Florida is appealing.  [/quote]
