I’m happy to see Pitt starting to get more recognition. I don’t have a kid there but know so many really bright kids there now.

It's ranked higher than Barnard, Davidson, and Harvey Mudd. Seems fine to me.

The descriptions are insightful and nice. Sort of like Fiske's but more updated.

I don't know about the list but I think all the schools on it are great.

This is a sport league.

And yes, I know all the moms and kids here who didnt get in like when [insert you school name here] gets on those list, but it is better to move on and accept that you DID NOT get in an Ivy League school and accept and be happy with where you are….


I think the term is a little questionable, but the idea - compiling a list of schools most attractive to employers with selectivity and quality academics, is not a bad idea.


That is fine, but no need to call it Ivy-adjacent. Maybe it’s just me, but it doesn’t make me think more of the schools, it makes me think less. They are great schools, stand in it.

An update of the (somewhat controversial) list from last year. Mostly the same as last year, but with a few colleges swapped out

New to this year's list:
WashU St. Louis
Tufts
Purdue
West Point
UPitt
William & Mary


I went to one of those, have a kid at an Ivy. Not a chance. I so wish we could permanently get rid of public ivy, new ivy, ivy plus, make it stop! These are all great schools, it’s just so desperate having to add that tag on and it doesn’t make any sense.
