Caltech at #4? A bit too high.
Wake Forest at #9? A bit too high.
Duke not in the top 13? No.

Absolutely no one thinks Wake Forest is a top 10 university.

+1. Put Columbia in the same tier as Princeton for overall then very good list. Doesn't make sense to put Princeton above Columbia when they don't even have any professional grad programs except SPIA. That's like saying Columbia's top law, med, and business schools are worth nothing.

PENN and University of Michigan are being left out. Great schools.

Penn has been included on most lists mentioned in this thread. Michigan, while great, wouldn’t be considered “top 10” by most people.

It’s:
Harvard Yale Stanford MIT
Princeton Columbia UChicago
Caltech Penn Northwestern

U.S. is a huge country…

Penn is clearly in the top 10 and Michigan is a top 20-25.

It’s:
Harvard Yale Stanford MIT Princeton [they remain the elite of the elites]
Columbia Penn Caltech [2nd tier elites]
Chicago Duke [3rd tier elites]

Can we just stick with this list? Separating undergrad and overall is a must for preventing any unnecessary disagreements.

So amused by this discussion. No wonder the US is in such rapid decline and we're quickly becoming the laughingstock of the world. Have a good day!

In your logic, Princeton decisively loses all cross-admit battles to HYS and maybe MIT. So Princeton isn't HYMS caliber.
