<p>That is graduate school. Not only that, but those are the worst rankings I've seen. Kellog is below Michigan and Dartmouth. You can't really compare UCLA Bizecon and USC Marshall. They are really two different majors. It is like comparing apples and oranges.</p>
<p>I agree, a Marshall undergrad will be highly recruited if he performs well in school though (of course along wiht other factors). I think we can all agree on that.</p>
<p>The USC undergrad business is still ahead of UCLA. U.S. News and World Report ranks USC as 9th in the nation. UCLA is behind that. What else can I do to confirm reality for you bRuins? I like how you come onto our board and pontificate without substantiality as to how UCLA is better than USC. If you are going to make a claim provide some evidence for it you dolts. </p>
<p>Here is the undergrad business ranking:

<p>thanks for that sirwatson. USC pride!</p>
<p>Again, UCLA isn't on that list at all because it doesn't have an undergraduate business program. Those rankings don't count bizecon as an undergraduate business program. So again, you can't really compare them, they are different.</p>
<p>Okay, well whether or not they are different is germane to the matter. The point is that USC grads are being sought by recruiters of companies before UCLA. Say the schools are different, say the rankings are wrong...at the end of the day USC is attracting more opportunities for its students.</p>
<p>Possibly... but UCLA is much harder to get into. Don't get me wrong, I'm playing devils advocate. I love Marshall, but I feel that a UCLA Biz/Econ + accounting minor degree has much stronger national recognition than USC Marshall.</p>
<p>In a regional setting, USC and UCLA are equal IMO. But the only thing that bugs me is UCLA doesnt have an undergrad business program but then again they do have an excellent biz/econ program. </p>
<p>As a transfer student, the thing that REALLY bugs me is how USC has an open backdoor for transfer students. With a 3.6 cumulative GPA, any transfer student will have a EXTREMELY good shot at Marshall. I was hoping Marshall was more of a challenge to get in, like UCLA Biz/econ. Thats just me.</p>
<p>Btw, if UCLA did have an undergrad business program, it would rank closer to Haas in the undergrad business rankings since the overall rankings say that UCLA is only 4 spots behind Berkeley. </p>
<p>But I will give USC this... entrepreneurship and accounting majors at SC are the best in california.</p>
<p>Moss that doesn't suprises figures that a transfer student might have an easier time getting in</p>
<p>If I get rejected from USC, I think I will attend my safety school. Some of the schools I applied to are just as competitive as USC or more. So... if I can't make it here I doubt I will get in at the other places.</p>
<p>^ o rly?</p>
<p>such as what school(s)?</p>
<p>The top UCs.</p>
<p>I'm a big Marshall fan and i hope to apply there next year (currently a junior). But I am also considering UCLA's Biz/Econ if I dont get in to USC ( I live in CA so I think its easier for me to get in to UCLA). Moss, you said its harder to get into the Biz/Econ major at UCLA. So my question is, is it really that hard to go from the pre-major status to the actual Biz/Econ major if you get in to UCLA as a freshmen? Because I would hate to get rejected from the major and then have to transfer somewhere else or change majors.</p>
<p>well hopefully USC is easier to get into than UCLA b/c i got rejected from LA and i really want to get into USC =(</p>
<p>To answer J's question, you won't have to worry about getting into biz/econ until your junior year I believe. In order to get into biz/econ, you need to complete 2 specific econ classes with a 3.5 or an A/B respectively to get into biz/econ permanently. These classes are harder than your normal classes because basicly all of the students are competing to get into biz/econ thus it will be very competitive to get an A/B. Getting accepted into ucla is only 1/2 of the journey, you need that 3.5 to get into biz/econ or you will get dropped into the normal ucla economics program.</p>
<p>Just wondering, it USC or NYU better?</p>
<p>NYU is #6 for undergraduate business while USC is #9. But USC ranks higher overall than NYU.</p>
