Uva is not really respected outside Virginia except maybe for law school.


Are you kidding?


Ok, maybe former confederate States may regard UVA as a good school.

Is it the quality of teaching or is it the quality of life students experience? We know that roughly 40 percent of magnet students from MCPS end up here so we are assuming these kids are satisfied with this affordable in state option. These are kids who could presumably get significant merit aid at many colleges that are ranked in the same region as UMDCP (not in the top 50 but pretty close)


Different methodology for calculating ranks. This list looks like more research focused than Newsweek ranking methodology.
