<p>Thank you for all your replies.</p>
<p>Personally, I can’t factor in location or compare the two until I visit both schools, but the evidence presented on undergrad teaching and rankings for feeder schools is interesting, but not necessarily convincing in making a decision.</p>
<p>Is Stanford really so research focused that they neglect undergrad students to a certain degree? </p>
<p>I’m sorry if any part of my question was redundant or ignorant (I admit I am, which is why I ask). </p>
<p>I will check out the other argument for and against nat. universities and LAC’s for sure.</p>
<p>Thank you! :)</p>
