[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not equal to U-Michigan or UVA for prestige, but it is a great school, and the town of Madison, WI is truly beautiful. A lot like Ann Arbor, MI, actually, but prettier.[/quote] UVA may be considered more prestigious with college rankings but UW Madison has a more diverse social scene and less Greek influence. Madison is not lacking for anything for any type of college student. So much right on your doorstep in Madison and great academics. Any type of student can fit in and be happy. [/quote] UVA definitely has much more prestige in this region, but not in the Midwest where UVA is not at all well known. [b] I think the schools have comparable reputations in NYC[/b], but Wisconsin has a far larger Alum base. [/quote] BS...there are a hell of a lot more UVA grads in front office wall-street positions or strategy consulting positions than UW-Madison alums. [/quote] Not true - you are talking out of your rear end[/quote] If you think UW-M is considered a 'target' school like UVA is for IB, trading, HF, PE, MBB consulting during the last 10 years you are sorely and I hope you do not give false info to your children. I'm not saying UW-M is a bad school. I think its a really good one actually. However if you think it places anywhere near as well as uva for certain industries that happen to dominate the NYC white collar professional scene, your the one chatting shite. [/quote] Any facts to back that up? There is virtually no way to know what you claim to know. You MIGHT be able to speak to an IP or two, but your generalization is plainly nonsensical. UW Madison is a far bigger school with a far larger ALUM network everywhere but DC and the south.[/quote]
