[quote=Anonymous]Most state schools are regional in nature. The only ones that attract a lot of elite students outside of their region are UVA, UC-Berkeley, UCLA, Michigan, and U. of North Carolina. And no, an Ag. college at Cornell isn't on the list. A lot of the other schools like Texas, Florida, Georgia, Washington, Illinois, Wisconsin, Purdue, Indiana, Georgia Tech, etc., have monster research programs and very strong graduate schools, but their undergraduate colleges are very regional in scope and don't really attract top students from other regions in large numbers. No one in say Connecticut, goes wow, you went the U. of Texas, you must of been very, very smart in high school. If anything, they think it is comparable or a tad better than UConn. The differences between Maryland vs. UC-Santa Barbara vs. Texas vs. Missouri just aren't that big of a deal. [/quote]
