The University of Michigan - Ann Arbor

With that said, Michigan offers so many opportunities for you to succeed, the resources and programs available to undergrduate students are second to none. Job placement is also as good as any ivy league University, all the major consulting and investment banks recruit here and heavily. If you are an engineering major you are guaranteed a job by graduation.

I've also heard that many people are concerned about class sizes at Michigan, it's really a myth, with the exception of the first year intro classes, which are big anywhere you go, most classes are around 20-30 people. And even the intro classes have sub-sections for discussions that are 10-20 people. Check out the LSA profile, they tell you the class sizes. Furthermore, the freshman seminar classes are all small. I have been in the professional consulting world for 2 years now, and my Michigan degree has opened so many doors for me, everywhere I go I am respected because of my degree, I didn't realize how prestigious Michigan is until I graduated. I'm about to pursue an MBA, and Michigan undergrads are #11 on the all time feeder list for Harvard Business school. Go Blue!
