<p>Hi everyone. Which university is better when it comes to Business/Economics regarding these factors: </p>
<p>1, quality of education, </p>
<p>2, chances of getting in top grad school (with equal grades and stuff) </p>
<p>3, and how likely it is to get a good job once graduated. </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>I doubt that there is a difference in any of the areas you mention. Both universities are very well known, and both have an excellent academic reputation.</p>
<p>The decision to which of these universities to attend would need to be based on other more subjective matters – social, geographic, class size, strength of alumni association, etc.</p>
<p>The US News and World Report rank Brown somewhat higher than Univ. or Michigan, but I would think the Honors privileges would most likely make up for any subjective differences.</p>
<p>Thanks fogcity!</p>
<p>I see. Umich is much larger in size yet Brown is a member of the Ivy League, which university in your opinion has more alumni strength?</p>
<p>Both schools have passionate and enthusiastic alumni and strong alumni connections. There will be more Michigan alums because it is a bigger school. But I would imagine more of them live in the Midwest.</p>
<p>I agree with fogcity that your decision should be based on the obvious differences between the two schools – size (Michigan is huge, Brown is smaller), location (midwest vs. New England), surrounding community (Providence is a small city, not sure how to categorize Ann Arbor since I’ve never been). etc. And money, of course – is one school costing more than the other? Do you need to take out loans for one and not the other?</p>
<p>It seems like one is safe with either one of them. Plus there is always the possibility to transfer later in case I don’t fit. Thanks a lot for your advice, I feel much better now.</p>
