- enraged_camel 13y agoThere are plenty of alternatives, but do they provide the same quality of education for your degree of choice?
- Fomite 13y agoWith very, very rare exceptions, yes. Most flagship state schools will give you an excellent education at a much, much better value.
- zalzane 13y agoWhy wouldn't they? It's not like MIT/whatever uses special books that no other uni can use. It's not like prestigious universities follow some special program that makes it so their students gain a much better insight into the subject than people who go to other universities. The perks of attending a prestigious university typically has nothing to do with your education. It has to do with rubbing shoulders with blue bloods, creating a powerful social network, and being able to woo people with the pedigree associated with the words "MIT graduate" on your resume.
