[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Huge difference. No comparison. I grew up outside the USA and no one there has heard of Vanderbilt or Wash U[/quote]

Globally, the only schools that really register are Harvard, MIT, Stanford, Berkeley and NYU for some reason. [/quote]

Not true. I’m Italian, worked in Germany, UK, Dubai and Tokyo over 25 years. Now in the US.

Sure the ones you mention everyone knows PLUS:

Wharton, Yale, Princeton, Michigan, UCLA, Cornell.

I dont care what anybody else here says. Outside of these 11 schools, nobody else knows much about any of the other schools….it is that simple. These command respect. Everything else is (oh…let me look at it as I dont know much about it….)[/quote]

Since most US graduates are working in the US post college, global recognition is unimportant to the majority. [/quote]

Maybe so, but that was not what the PP was talking about…..he was specifically talking about 5 schools people know outside of the US.[/quote]
