Cornell is twice the size.

Really? There at least a dozen schools including three NESCAC LACs which place considerably better than Columbia on a per capita basis.

Anyone who finds this meaningful also likely considers USN&WR to be useful. Use your brains.

IKR, I don't measure schools by the size of their pipeline.

Location in NYC (self-selecting) coupled with bright kids.

Who wants to work for FAANG anymore? Go work for a cybersecurity company or an AI startup.

The tech bros are getting fired. Tech has the 7th highest unemployment rate now.

These numbers are not normalized.

This - many of the schools that send the most per capita are smaller/more prestigious colleges than large publics.

Location of the school also matters.

As someone stated, SJSU is in the heart of SV, and lots of the grads get hired at those companies in SV. I went to SJSU. I eventually ended up working for a FAANG.

The MAJORITY? Find that hard to believe.

"Getting hired" by a company doesn't account for what roles they are hired in. Lots of schools send tons of kids to mid and back office jobs at banks, or FP&A at FAANG. Perfectly fine jobs but not what Ivy Leaguers are aspiring to.

Wrong. The NESCACs start placing around 10th best.
