[quote=Anonymous]There are some delusional posters in this thread. There is the Ivy and a few others that are elite. Perhaps 4 state schools. But at the end of the day, any Ivy school has more brand name everywhere--public, employers, etc. People want to say they are affiliated with Ivy. Here are the schools that matter (again this has been done so many times in tier rankings). Ivies, MIT, Stanford, Duke, Northwestern, Cal Tech, Chicago, Hopkins, Carnegie Mellon for Computer Science, and Georgetown for Government/Intl Affairs. SLACs: Amherst, Williams, Swarthmore, and Pomona. Out of this list four state schools matter: Berkeley, Michigan, UVA, and UCLA (in that order). Note the first state school does not appear till 20 in US News. As to SLACs, when looking at joint surveys of SLACs and National Universities in one ranking e.g. Forbes, SLACs don't appear till the 20s as well. [/quote]
