@RML

anyway, i think that’s for undergrad. but for professional education, which I think draws school prestige and brand power largely, Michigan and UVa, being national and international names, are superior to UCLA’s. UCLA’s are still “regional” names.</p>

<p>Michigan Law, Med and Business, and UVa Law and UVa Business are tier 1 schools. UCLA’s, except for its med school, aren’t.

Umm… no. Cut your Berkeley bias against UCLA out. </p>

<p>UVa business: Rank 13
UCLA business: Rank 15
Tier 1? Virginia has a well known undergrad business school.</p>

<p>UVa law: Rank 10
UCLA law: Rank 15</p>

<p>UVa med: Rank 25
UCLA med: Rank 11</p>

<p>UVa engineering: 39
UCLA engineering: 14</p>

<p>UCLA is clearly the superior (and better rounded) grad school. While UCLA is roughly the same rank for practically every area, Virginia really bombs certain areas. </p>

<p>UVa THEQS/USNWR: 128
UCLA THEQS/USNWR: 32</p>

<p>UVa ARWU: 96
UCLA ARWU: 13</p>

<p>UCLA is also the superior international university. Virginia isn’t an international university at all!</p>
