[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just because students pick Harvard and Stanford overwhelmingly doesn't make them the best undergraduate experience. That would be Princeton, as PP said. Harvard and Stanford get picked because their students aren't concerned with the best undergraduate education/residential experiences but rather the glamour/opportunities at place at those two. Princeton's graduate school is tiny and it's not in a particularly exciting location. [/quote] Best undergraduate experience is hard to measure. What college wins when it comes to cross admits or which college has the biggest brand is easier to measure. Most students competitive enough to get into the ivies do not make their decision based on college experience. They are largely prestige-driven. Hence why Harvard and Stanford are the ultimate dream schools. [/quote]
