[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Huge difference. No comparison. I grew up outside the USA and no one there has heard of Vanderbilt or Wash U[/quote] Globally, the only schools that really register are Harvard, MIT, Stanford, Berkeley and [b]NYU for some reason.[/b] [/quote] In many countries the best universities are in the most prominent cities…University of Copenhagen, University of Sydney, university of Toronto, University of Edinburgh etc. So, many people around the world just assume NYU must be something special. Boston U gets a benefit-of-the-doubt bump on the world stage as well, but to a lesser degree. If Washington University were in DC, it would probably get a huge bump in name recognition. [/quote] Georgetown doesn’t get the recognition outside of the US. Nobody knows what it is. [/quote]
