[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends which Ivy. Harvard, Yale, Princeton - YES (also non-Ivy like Stanford, MIT, Cal tech) [b] Brown, Cornell, Dartmouth - NO [/b] Columbia/Penn - Maybe, depends of state school (and major)[/quote] Not categorically true. Depends on the public university, career goals/aspirations, your social circle and where your child wants to live. For some big law firms (and Supreme Court circuit clerks/judge) Ivy undergrad/Ivy Law school makes a difference. I imagine this is true for some finance/investment fields too. I worked in banking/financial sector and the Ivy grads (all schools) were fast tracked. My thought is if it’s a $20-$30K difference, and a school my child really wants to attend, then I would go for it if you have the cashflow and can keep loans within reason.[/quote]
