Well it is only a sports league after all. if it were not them belonging in that sports division, dartmouth and brown would be more irrelevant than they already are.

Hey obvious troll, try harder please. Put some effort in.

?? It’s the truth. Its a merely a denonym for the league of football and lacrosse players that play with one another. Apart from that, it’s a term that’s thrown around the denote a “globally recognized and prestigious college”, of which Dartmouth and Brown are not relative to other schools of similar caliber.

OK so you did try a bit harder. But you’re still an imbecile.

Depends on who you are asking internationally....
I work in education and I don't really know the relative ranking of schools in the UK other than Oxford and Cambridge. And maybe LSE.

Have you heard of Durham or Warwick? They are some of the best schools in the UK. People in the UK know and that's pretty much all that matters. Sames goes for Brown and Dartmouth OP.

Brown is a top 10 school. It’s ranked 9.

Dartmouth and Cornell are generally the “lower”. Cornell also is large- 17,000 students vs 7k.

FWIW Cornell has pretty good recognition in China and Korea.

Harvard, Princeton, and Penn are the only ivies that are well known internationally. Yale is a maybe. Outside that, the others are unknown.

God- you are dumb. All 8 Ivies are very well-known internationally. I am European and there is a frenzy to get into an Ivy. Look at tennis rosters, soccer rosters, squash, etc…filled with Europeans at all 8 Ivies. It’s a business over there.

Over 1/3 of Brown’s students are International.

Depends, Cornell is well known. But people know Emory before they'll know Brown and Dartmouth.

We're European and have Asian relatives.

The ONLY universities which might be known to the general public outside the US are HYPSM.

And to be completely honest, Harvard is the only reliably recognizable one. The others often are not. People have maybe vaguely "heard" of them, but they don't know about them.

Do YOU know any well-known unis in Europe and Asia, apart from the Oxbridge-Sorbonne-Tokyo U and associated that you can count on one hand? Do you KNOW about them, versus having vaguely heard their name?

Same for the US. No one has ever heard of any Brown, Duke or Dartmouth, my friend.

Yeah, no. Maybe in your little circle of Ivy groupies, but that is most emphatically not the norm.

Are we talking general public, or are we talking very specific hiring departments of international companies, or a very restrained well-heeled circle of international families?

Because the general public has no clue and does not care.

Brown made it top 10 only one year, the most recent one, and it is due to usnews changing the system a lot. It is not really t10.
