First choice, fell in love with it but also accepted to HYP which was a surprise. Will have to revisit both. [/quote]

Picking UNC over HYP was a dumb decision by a stubborn teenager that has impacted the rest of my life.

I hope your kid will make a better decision than I did.[/quote]

+1 I had a T10 classmate who made the same decision, regretted it, then transferred UNC to the T10. It was a very different education comparison. The PP needs to pick HYP, or any T10, over UNC[/quote]

Again this was a zillion years ago. There are employers who will not hire from the ivys anymore, particularly HYP. And there are kids who will not attend HYP for principled reasons. [/quote]

There are no desirable employers that purposely do not hire from ivies. There may be some small chip on the shoulder managers who do not but i guarantee the ivy kids and the rest of the T20 are not looking at these places for jobs. When the top professional schools and top white collar firms have an overrepresentation of T20 and some even target the same 20 ish before other college grads get a look it says all that needs to be said about the desirability of the top school grads[/quote]

+1. The stated fact that employers are not hiring from Ivies is a myth perpetuated by those who do not attended. I attended and I hire[/quote]

Well, if we’re using anecdotal data, I have two fellow Ivy alum friends who won’t hire from Ivies. [/quote]
