<p>I think I read somewhere that Harvey Mudd sends a lot of people to grad school - even more than HYP, I believe.</p>
<p>the usual suspects.
Ivies, Top LACs, Northwestern, Duke, Stanford, JHU, Uchicago, WashU, Georgetown, CMU, NYU, Top Publics. etc. In no particular order.</p>
<p>UC Berkeley has the most, in terms of number of alumni going to grad school.</p>
<p>A study like this does little or nothing to expose “hidden gems”, i.e. contrarian college choices that will improve your professional school admission odds. As someone suggested, if the study is repeated the schools near the bottom (especially small schools) will change because they enter the lists based on very small success numbers, so random factors are more likely to affect those schools. The schools near the top will again be the usual suspects. </p>
<p>Not to knock New College of Florida but it gets its #31 spot based on 3 admits, who for all we know were triplet grandchildren of a Supreme Court judge. Next time around, their quad cousins might be applying to Yale from College of the Atlantic. So you need to do your homework and pick your college for the undergraduate education, based on the best combination of quality, total costs, and fit. If New College is the one, chances are it should still be the one even if it drops of the next WSJ feeder list.</p>
