I almost agree with mojo’s ranking, except i would switch CU-B with Michigan State.



although umich and ucla are relatively close…basically tied.



well, it really comes down to which program you are talking about but if you consider all the factors (prestige, overall academics, graduation rate, job placement, scores on standardized tests, starting income, etc.), I have to say that Ann Arbor is still one step above UCLA (although the difference is negligible).

UCLA is closer to USC than it is to UMichigan, just as UMichigan is in the league with Berkeley.

If I were to illustrate this with number line from 1 to 10 (1 being lowest ranked and 10 being highest ranked):

UMichigan:9
UCLA:8
USC:7.5
UTexas:7
UIUC:6.5
Ufl:5
Michigan State: 4
CU-Boulder:3
