Definitely

And not as prestigious as several other Ivy League schools

Title could have been worded better, but Penn definitely has grown in prestige over the last several decades. Outside of Wharton it was definitely considered "last" in the Ivy League, but of course still very, very prestigious. I hate that terminology because "last in the Ivy League" is still "one of the top in the world"

Agree with OP that 20 years ago only the BBA program was considered that prestigious. Seems to have jumped since.

Only on DCUM is an ivy league school not prestigious.

Christ on a whole wheat cracker, give it a break with the preposterous elitism for like five minutes!

I’m 60. I applied only to Penn (Wharton) and Harvard. Chose Harvard because I wasn’t sure about business and didn’t think the rest of the University was that strong. But my Dad (Midwesterner transplanted to CA) said the Wharton guys were always smarter/less BS than the Harvard MBAs, lol!

Agree. It has been in that position for 40 years.

Penn has long been prestigious. It is not HYP, and it clearly has slipped in recent years relative to Columbia, but it's up there with Brown and Duke. It actually gets more applications than either Yale or Princeton.
