Abstract
We report evidence that university reputation affects wages of bachelors in China. An unconditional difference between a top-100 university and a top 400–500 university of 23% is increased to some 28% by adding controls. Within the top-100 there is no differentiation in pay-off. Self-rated quality of high school, while affecting quality of university attended, has no effect on earnings.
