[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None. Ivy carries prestige that sticks with you for life. "He went to an Ivy League school." People are impressed, forever.[/quote] Less so than before. Harvard for the name, though not the undergraduate education. Princeton and Yale for the names and prestige, and for the academic rigor. Columbia for the rigor of the core curriculum. Penn for Wharton, if you majored in business as an undergraduate. Cornell for engineering, if you travel in those circles. Brown and Dartmouth - no real advantage over scores of other schools like Duke, Northwestern, Chicago, Washington U, Williams, Amherst, Swarthmore, and Pomona. Brown might be at a disadvantage given the widespread perception that the wealthy can buy admission there. [/quote]
