I'm not really one to believe in the McLeans ratings, but, some food for thought nonetheless. From what I can recall, McLeans consistently rates
U of C's Business program as one of the worst in the Country.

Obviosly, many here have had experiences that contradict those ratings. On that note, I really think any opinion you will find in a thread like this (or magazine) is very subjective and should be taken with a grain of salt. Everyone has their own criteria for evalueating their experience. Listen to others, but do your research as well.

As for my subjective opinion.... I graduated from the U of L and have nothing but great things ot say about it. It is cheaper than U of C, and has much smaller class sizes. U of L doesn't have as many options for Major's, though.

U of L is rated quite high for Business in McLeans. As much as I don't believe in these ratings, many employers rely on them for some reason.
I was actually told in a second job interview that I was selected to go further based on my U of L Degree, as this particular business thought that U of C wasn't preparing their students well enough to make a good transition into the business world.

Again, though, that was just one opinion.
