[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NO way is ND or UVA on the same tier as Cal. Cal is a major, internationally recognized research university.  Notre Dame is an amazing regional school with fantastic community but its not the same, sorry.  UVA is a solid regional/national university but not on same scale.

Every other school listed is niche or local, so it would depend on your personal preference.

Tulane is popular and has a fun factor for kids these days, so that might raise it above its academics, which are mediocre.

Exactly this.

Cal is very, very highly thought of, nation-wide, but especially on the east coast (where it is harder to get in).  I speak from personal experience - Cal grad that gets amazing opportunities in DC.  If you kid can get in, GO![/quote]

Notre Dame is a lot of things, but it is not a “regional” school. [b]It has more geographical diversity than virtually any college or university in the United States.[/b] UC Berkeley is obviously a fantastic school, but the overwhelming majority of its students are from California. I think the fairest thing to say is that UC Berkeley is one of the best graduate schools in the country, but on the undergraduate level Notre Dame is probably better.[/quote]

This is false. Also ND scores extremely low on the social mobility rankings.[/quote]
