+1. Ivies are soooo overrrated... so we created a term for schools that are TOTALLY just as if not MORE elite and we called it IVY plus. lol

You all are so misinformed it’s embarrassing. Ivy Plus was coined by Ivy League schools themselves and is used in a limited, official capacity when discussing library exchanges, consortia, faculty conferences, you name it. It’s also a term used by Ivy League alumni associations for networking purposes. Example: http://rmhuc.clubs.harvard.edu/article.html?aid=265

"This consists of little more than a e-mail list that connects officers of the member alumni organizations. You will find no link to a home page here, because they do not have a website. In fact, there have been no organizational meetings since March, 2009."

LOL

That was literally from a 10 second Google search, and it still proves it’s an actual term. But because I know you’re itching for me, here are a few more examples from yet another quick search:

If the term is real, how come the list of schools keep changing.

Neither of those links are affiliated with actual colleges. Don’t be daft. I can just as easily pull up examples of businesses and orgs named after the Ivy League.

You don't understand how search engine works. Google presents the most relevant results first. Try google "Ivy League" and "Ivy Plus" and see which term is real.

I honestly wonder if this person is, counterintuitively, an Emory shill. Unprovoked, they keep bringing up Emory in association with higher-calibre schools, even on that other thread about the Ivy League. No one's talking about Emory here...

Beyond that this person who keeps posting about how non-Ivy schools can't possibly be elite is the kind of desperate striver that they themselves are so desperate to put down.

I'm not PP but what's your issue with Emory. You seem to be mentioning it more than anyone else. And what higher caliber schools in a thread that mentions JHU, UVA, Cornell etc? Emory is clearly in the same ballpark as those schools.

If NYU and Michigan are overrated by DCUM, then UVA, which tends to be ranked next to Yale and Princeton here, certainly is.

Are you done with the “UVA is overrated” silliness maybe we can move on to something important. Sorry you have
have sour grapes but resurrecting old threads with nonsense statements wastes everyone’s time.

UVA is not overrated. It’s not even a top 25 school.

[Anonymous]

Who would win if UVA boosters and LAC hypers went at each other arguing that their school was better?
