I respectfully disagree with your opinion. No way Rutgers (#40) and UMD (#46) are tier 4 IMO. Admissions rate do not equate to quality or outcomes - and public universities are required to be accessible for their in-state residents instead of exclusive.
I have a bone to pick with Rutgers because, as you say, they have a duty to in-state residents. However Rutgers is ridiculous right now. My kid is a straight A student, AP classes up the wazoo, National Honor Society, killed it on the SAT, NJ Resident with both parents Rutgers alum and she just got waitlisted at Rutgers. Internet loaded with similar stories about it now. It's hardly a safety school, it seems they are putting themselves out of reach of most in-state. Admissions rates at RU are going to be tanking, watch.
@@carnacthemagnificent2498 I was accepted into Rutgers a few weeks ago. I have good grades but didn’t take many AP classes. Your child may have been waitlisted because there stats were to good for the school and the chances of them being accepting by a better school is higher. In short your child wasn’t accepted because Rutgers doesn’t want there acceptance rate to increase because it does help them in there ranking. In my opinion I think this is wrong but I believe this is the reason you child wasn’t accepted.

@@yuhoseok47 Berkeley also has the most top ranked or top 3 undergrad programs. Off the top of my head, they have the top business administration undergrad, top 3 CS, best civil engineering, best psychology, etc. us news ranks only a handful of undergrad programs and Berkeley does well in almost all of them. Furthermore, having the best graduate programs means you’re gonna have the best professors and grad students, who ultimately will be the ones working with you as an undergrad. I love my graduate school instructors (GSI). They were incredibly smart and motivated.
Rutgers is ranked 40, yet this creator explicitly placed it in tier 4. Just goes to show that that is purely subjective and much to do about nothing. Students inherently have no experience and understand of the world around them and should focus on the best program for their career path rather than today's best brand which might not even offer the program for their chosen career. Said another way, show me a "smart" student who wants to go to Harvard for engineering and i will show you a fool.
@@harrychu650 A lot of public schools shot up disproportionally in the USnews rankings but realistically Rutgers isn't the 40th most presitigous/sought-after school.

@@adr77510 prestige comes from research, citations, faculty, school history, discoveries, innovations, etc, not freckled faced undergrads. And that’s what drives departmental rankings.

you can argue that it's in the higher tier, but best University in the US are private schools, it's not in the same tier as Harvard, UPenn or Columbia, or even WashU.

Agreed no program matches physics at umd
Clearly this person has no clue how difficult it is to get into eg UCSD or Rutgers for computer science or engineering
UCSD yes but Rutgers is quite easy to get into. I got in myself for Biomedical Engineering
Since when did Berkeley become tier 2 ☠️☠️☠️
It has like 34 top 10 department and like 15 top five departments. It should be tier 1.

None of those schools in tier 2 are tier 2. They are all tier 1. With Berkeley being higher on the tier 1 list
Thank you. Go bears!
This is the first year in like ten years that Berkeley has ranked in the top 20. Heavy disagree

Where do the "tiers" come from and what makes the source reputable and reliable?
Very interesting. Actually you're right about those, I think
What is even the criteria being used to determine this??
this is a ranking on selectivity
Lmao this video is cap
It’s a shame to put UC Berkeley in Tier 2. Already insulting people but saying it’s not an insult.
@melinakim Berkeley is the best public university in the country and may as well be of the world, it's not a tier 2 school, its a tier 1

Asian tiger-mom tiers? Rutgers that low? Come on.
very low quality video and no sources cited. most people would disagree with some of the classifications.

Fun to watch and interesting!

According to this post, it would be tier 8
Not true at all
What tier is texas state?
Where would you place West Point on this list?
Tier 20 because it is a military school
Berkeley is tier 1.5, ucla and usc is tier 2
What a crock.. where are you getting your data from?
U Penn is not considered a Tier 1 to most ivy league students.

You go to school/college, get degree, might get a job .. and wait until you become old and die..m wow
What about BU
I would say its Tier 2. Its ranking is ~40 give or take. Peer schools would be BC, NYU
