Don’t dwell too much on graduation rates. Check out the programs of interest to you, your individual chances (based on your own credentials) of getting into the program and other factors that matter to you. Everyone is provincial- I don’t expect HS students in California to know that much about schools in other regions. I also don’t expect students here to know much about CA schools. One reason to leave one’s area is to experience the differences in climate and culture. You can’t have everything- you will need to choose among many variations. You have many good programs available to you. Spend some time researching the campuses and visit those that interest you most. Then choose the one that seems to fit you best. None of us can do that for you. This is the UW board so of course the general bias is for UW. Check other school’s boards for their take on the subject.
