[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have degrees from both Princeton and Columbia and the undergrad experience at Princeton is better, unless you want to be in (and can afford) a big city and are prepared to be more independent. [/quote] Same here. The Princeton undergrads really receive a wealth of resources from the university and are pampered in so many ways. Columbia is good too, but definitely for someone who likes the city life and independence. I wouldn’t pick Cornell. It’s not in the same tier of schools. [/quote] You are right. For CS (which is what OPs kid will study) Cornell is the clearly the best of the three.[/quote] Not according to objective metrics. If you look at us news and world reports rankings, Princeton is #15 for undergraduate computer science (worldwide), Columbia is #50 and Cornell is tied for #89.[/quote]
