[quote=Anonymous]The UC schools are all huge, with 43-48 thousand students. The UC system is intended to prioritize research and graduate programs. At this, they are far ahead of the Virginia schools (although UVA has great Law and Graduate Business programs). Berkeley is in the top 10 (per USNWR) in more graduate disciplines than any private school, including Harvard, Stanford, and MIT. UCLA is also close to the top. They are ahead in global rankings, which are heavily weighted on research productivity. But undergraduate education is a different thing. The UC schools don't have great faculty to undergraduate student ratios, don't rate that high for teaching, ease of getting classes, etc. Depending on what you want, I think you could make a good case for the Virginia schools at the undergraduate level.[/quote]
