I'm dying to get my decision over..
UVa vs. Univ. of Michigan.
I know both are great schools, but it seems like UVa
has a bit more name value and reputation, as the 2nd best
public school.
But I cant ignore Ann Arbor's great science department and
its great alumni network too.
Here are the things i value

1. GOOD GUIDANCE** in college through graduate. (basically
a school that sends me to good medical school*)
2. good name value/reputation
3. Some number of Korean students?
(I know U-M has a bunch of Koreans, but how about UVa? Are
there some* Koreans at UVa? I personally think 50 or 200 is the same,
both huge)

So..where should I go?

UVa does NOT have more value and reputation than Michigan. Michigan is actually more prestigious with a higher peer assessment score. In my opinion, both universities are equal though, but as far as reputation goes, I think Michigan wins.

Sometimes Michigan is ranked as the #2 public school, and sometimes UVA.

Not sure about UVA, but Michigan is full of Asians (especially Koreans). Just pay a visit to Bubble Tea Island.

I'm facing the exact same dilemma. Well, between the schools at least. I'm planning on doing business so Ross and McIntire are both amazing options. Ulitimately I hope to come back to the midwest so Michigan wins there, but UVA's campus is amazing and the atmosphere seems like it would fit me better. I guess it's not a bad problem to have, though. Choosing between two great schools, that is.
