[quote=Anonymous]This is hysterical:

If you ask someone immersed in the college frenzy where they will be going to college, they will try to explain it in some vague terms in order to not self-dox.

But here is the guide for deciphering what these mean:

Harvard - Harvard
HYP - Yale or Princeton
#1 on USNews - Princeton
Ivy - Cornell/Brown/Dartmouth/UPenn/ Columbia
Wharton - UPenn Wharton (they have to mention that they are in Wharton)
Stanford - the Farm
"Harvard of the South" - Duke or Vanderbilt
T4 CS School - CMU or Berkeley
T5 CS School - UIUC, GaTech, UWash
#1 Public School - Berkeley or UCLA
MIT - MIT
"MIT of the West" - CalTech
T10 School - Northwestern, UChicago, Johns Hopkins
T20 School - WashU, Rice, Vanderbilt or Notre Dame
T10 Engineering School - Purdue
T10 Undergrad Business School - IU Kelley
WASP / Top LAC - Williams Amherst
Swarthmore Pomona
"Hidden Ivy" = Literally any LAC
"Public Ivy" - UVA UNC UMich or UT
T20 - Any of the T20s not already mentioned

And for LACs:

Amherst- a small harvard 
Swarthmore- a small princeton 
Williams- a small yale 
Colby, bowdoin- like Dartmouth but without frats!
Carleton, grinell, oberlin, Kenyon- small Brown
