The reputation of a college and its rankings are highly dependent upon the quality of its research. The research at MIT or CMU may be head and shoulders above another university but that doesn’t mean you would necessarily learn more there during undergrad. You know it will cost you $120k more to attend UC Berkeley than JHU. You may have more opportunities or you may not. You may earn the same coming out of UCB as JHU. The outcomes are uncertain.
