While research opportunities on the undergraduate level can be very important to a student’s development, institutional research volume may represent a poor way of estimating opportunities that would be available to you. As an example, if you were to consider a top program for the undergraduate study of psychology, such as, say, Pitzer’s, you would see that it that it thrives without an AAU designation. You could find counter-examples too, of course. But in any case, you wouldn’t want the presence or absence of an AAU label to limit you in your search for the best possible program and experience.
