This argument is a joke. According to USNWR’s engineering ratings, Brown, Dartmouth, and Yale all have ratings lower than UVA, but somehow that doesn’t matter?

STEM includes more than just engineering. A top 25 school should have at least one department ranked in the top 25.

Undergraduate Tiers
1A) Harvard, Stanford, MIT, Yale, Princeton
1B) Columbia, Penn, Duke, Chicago, Caltech

2A) Northwestern, Brown, Dartmouth, Williams, Amherst
2B) Rice, Cornell, Pomona, Vanderbilt, Georgetown, Cal, Notre Dame, Emory, Swarthmore, UCLA, Wellesley

3A) Michigan, NYU, USC, UVA, Tufts, Middlebury, Barnard
3B)UNC, Boston College, W&M, Wake, W&L, Davidson

Tier 2A is very debatable is there are a lot of great schools that could go there.

+1 the question is. Is 2B elite? I would say yes. Is 3B elite?

WashU, Carnegie Mellon?

WashU , Carnegie Mellon, JHU, Bowdoin are missing

This is T25 thread, but who thinks Wake, UF, UNC, UCSB are better than Northeastern?

The students actually applying certainly don't think so based on the selectivity and students stats.

Berkeley has the best academic programs all around of any universities - STEM, humanities, social sciences, law, business, medicine (UCSF). Idiots only know about silly domestic USNWR.

My Chicago friends would say that Chicago has the most and is the best. Can’t stand Chicago parents. The school plays ranking games too.
