[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The ivy plus schools are a specific group noted in multiple articles to give an advantage in some outcomes for careers and top grad/prof schools:
8 ivies plus MIT Stanford Duke Uchicago.
Add the 3 schools that have made the usnews top 10 for years running (JHU, Caltech, Northwestern) and that is the T15 universities. 
The order varies but the four ivies in the top 10 for many years are HYPP, the top half of the ivies. Columbia is on a major 5 yr slide with cheating of rankings and now significant issues so one could debate whether Cornell beats it due to stem and a 4th best ivy world ranking, or if Brown does, but almost everyone agrees Dartmouth is the lowest and more on par with top LACs Williams and Amherst.

The T3 LACs (WAS) are generally considered at the bottom or just below this T15group and on par with the next 7 national universities (Berkeley CMU Rice WashU Vanderbilt UCLA Notre Dame).  
That’s the top 25 overall. 
Pomona is the next tier down with Georgetown UMich UVA Emory, making the Top30 overall, though some would argue for UNC in this group and bump Pomona down. [/quote]
Dartmouth is much better than b tier Amherst and Williams no name schools[/quote]
