[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools should not be reduced to department rankings. That is a bad proxy for the overall experience and value.[/quote] Department rankings shouldn’t be discarded either though. They are indicators of academic quality in different parts of the university and high rankings are often associated with more resources and better student outcomes for students within that department. Especially for individuals looking into different schools to attend (rather than just wanting a broad ranking), going down to the department level makes a lot of sense.[/quote] But about half of students change their intended major before graduating. It makes most sense to look more carefully if you have to do direct admit to a program.[/quote]
