Consider this a guide to a few colleges that can be just as competitive as the Ivy Leagues.
1. University of Virginia
Not only is UVA a large, well renowned public institution in Charlottesville, Va., but its total in-state tuition is only $23,986! An added perk includes that UVA is the public university with the most Rhodes Scholars.
2. University of Florida
3. The State University of New York at Stony Brook
SUNY Stony Brook is not only one of the best research institutions in the world but it comes at a New York sized bargain with a total in-state tuition that is just $5,570. The short train ride into the city makes the location very attractive as well.
4. California Polytechnic State University

Who is better? The only networking texas exs do is on grindr.

The major difference between Ivy League schools and Public ones isn't education. In fact, public uni's have closed the gap in a lot of ways and many are better in certain majors and/or grad majors.
Where Ivies show out is 1. the socioeconomic status of students and 2. networking (both student wise AND recommendation wise - get an Ivy Prof to write a rec for you and you'll go far). With Ivies you have the connections and resources to drum up capital, have access to a fantastic alumni base that really does help you, and get into a great grad school (one that often sets you up for life).
It's not really an education difference at most places. (And FWIW, I've taught both public uni kids and Hahvhaad kids at the grad level and there's not a dime's worth of difference).
Everything being equal, you're a fool not to go Ivy.

A Vanderbilt degree with very good grades will get you an interview at Harvard.
Overall, none at the undergraduate level.
But that said, almost all schools have particular majors that are as good as anybody's. Had I gone to grad school in pre-Civil War history it would have been LSU. Florida is loaded with great majors.
South Carolina's International Business is as good as anyone's.
Almost all have something.

I think the only public schools that the Ivy's would allow to attend the mixers are Cal and Michigan, and only if they brought the beer and some hetero chicks.

Not even the best as far as networking in your own state.
Like hell. I know most SEC schools have loyal fan bases and would help each other out, but it is different at A&M. You can sit there and laugh about the oddness of some of the traditions and being cult-like, but what comes with that is a massive school with a massive alumni base that are very deliberate about networking with Aggies wherever you live.

Its one of the best in South Carolina.
Posted on 8/21/16 at 5:06 pm to DaleDenton
It's always ranked top 1-3. And that was before the new, multimillion dollar facility went up.

Whatever you say. While on the subject of academics, do you know how the Vet school at Georgia works. 95 percent of our kids go to Georgia. Is there some type of agreement.
If you don't know just say so.

Probably.
Arkansas has an agreement with OSU for grads going into their vet program at a discounted tuition rate.
