[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCUMers: What would you choose? Oxbridge or HYP? For, say, Math/Physics/Economics?[/quote]

I know a non-HYP ivy grad who chose a 2nd tier US grad school over Oxford. Part of her logic was that she already has a [b]US ivy degree that was good enough for her so the Oxford name recognition didn't have the pull. [/quote][/b]

and how did that work out for her?  Odd choice.  Usually the last degree is the one whose stature gets you the best job placements.[/quote]

Another part of the student's logic was that the 2nd tier uni was in NYC, and she was betting on networking opportunities in the city.  There's really no Oxford brand that her US non-HYP ivy did not have in terms of name recognition. [/quote]

Fordham has plenty of make recognition in nyc too. I can still say Brown is the “better” school.  Also no reason to type out non-HYP Ivy.  lol.  We don’t know your college roommates sons girlfriend.  Say Cornell if you mean it. Or Dartmouth we don’t care [/quote]
