I’d agree with this and say moreso, for kids that are pre-law or don’t know where they’ll end up, there’s no advantage to UT over UGA because of the name…and I’d say the same with most every school.
There’s no prestige difference at most state schools.
People seem to think there is - but for 95% of people - I don’t think so, especially folks thinking law school.
I imagine if someone is econ at a UVA or UMich, it’d be a difference if they were interested in banking - but not for the far majority of kids going in with an unknown, but saying pre-law.
Your daughter needs to go where she feels best - you keep trying to see ( @billythegoldfish ) if one is better - and it’s just not. Maybe she’ll be in the right place at the right time and land an internship etc, but that’s as likely to happen at URI as it is at UGA or UT.
I know kids at UGA and may be able to link you up with one - it’s a big sprawling school. I think Honors dorm is in campus but you said your student doesn’t want that.- I know people seem to like it a lot but they do at many schools, including UF, where you’re also in.
I’d say in your daughter’s case - all these schools are interchangeable. UGA gave you Honors though and if the curriculum meets her needs, it’s a big win…in part for the dorm so you don’t have to take the bus. oops
