<p>Aren’t university rankings based off of their graduate programs, anyways? My professors claim that although Berkeley is #1 in the nation for their English grad program, UCLA and Berkeley are pretty much equal at the undergrad level. I’d rather go to UCLA now, and work my butt off to get to a really great grad school like Berkeley in a couple of years, rather than go to Berkeley now and end up at UCI for my grad studies. Not that UCI is a bad school at all, but what would have been the point of going to Berkeley now when no one will care about my undergrad school?</p>
