[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perspective of someone who attended international schools in the Middle East and Southeast Asia.

Tier 1: HYPSM, Oxford, Cambridge

Tier 2: Columbia, Chicago, Duke, Wharton

Tier 3: Northwestern, Cornell, UPenn, Caltech (suffers from complete lack of name recognition but otherwise would be Tier 2)

Tier 4: Brown, Dartmouth, Johns Hopkins

Tier 5 and below: Imperial, UCL, LSE, NYU, etc.[/quote]

How did Duke get so popular around the world so quickly? When I was growing up I just knew I didn't want Duke basketball to win anything and no one said anything about it being a good school. Of course now I know it's a world-class university that's better than most of the ivy league schools, but I seriously wonder what happened between my childhood and now.[/quote]

When you open up a collaborative university in PRC (Duke Kunshan) your world recognition is bound to rise.[/quote]

Smart investment by them, seeing that China is the next big market. Parents, now is a good time to get your kids into Duke before it gets flooded by international students.[/quote]

Duke's grad programs are already flooded by international students. The MBA program would be in serious trouble without int'l students. Duke also has one year masters programs in finance/management/business which primarily serve international students.[/quote]
