<p>As many of y’all know, Business Week recently released its 2nd Annual Undergraduate Business School rankings. While UVA again nabbed the #2 spot, (which I’m very proud of) I’m not a big rankings fan. Instead, I’d like to share my favorite quote about McIntire that shows why it’s a great school no matter what its ranking is.</p>
<p>I love that. I’ve been reading about McIntire a lot and it’s a really good school. It deserves that spot. Maybe soon it’ll be #1? Haha.</p>
<p>I applied to Penn so I’m still torn between McIntire and Wharton…but reading that makes me really want to go to UVA. I don’t know yet. I guess I’ll have to wait till April to decide. I got a likely letter from UVA so I’m really psyched to go there now.</p>
<p>Then it’d be better for you financially at UVA…unless if you get scholarships and stuff while at Wharton. With mine both are pretty much the same since I’m out-of-state. Penn’s more expensive, of course. If I go to UVA I’d be spending around $37000 for everything compared to around $46000 at Penn.</p>
<p>So I guess the financial aid awards they give me (if any) will be a major factor in my decision.</p>
<p>I don’t know that Trump the type of alumnus we’d need to have for McIntire to overtake Wharton. I think we’d simply have to out-do them in recruiting, and that likely won’t happen in the near future. Wharton has such a strong presence among elite firms and its graduates do so, so well that it’s tough for a school like UVA to compete.</p>
