<p>I don’t doubt that Cal is an attractive graduate school, seeing as at least half the graduate students I’ve seen are international. My research professor is on the graduate admissions committee for one of the departments here and he says that they only take the best students from around the world, with a couple of exceptions here and there.</p>
<p>On the graduate level, I’m sure Cal is up there with Stanford/MIT/Harvard, etc…
However, on the undergraduate level, it’s a different story.</p>

<p>Just saying…Chicago has not had a Putnam Fellow since 1985 while Caltech/Harvard/MIT/Stanford had at least one this last year and will continue to take the math spotlight for quite a while (yay Evan O’ Dorney)…</p>
