How does this compare to the thoughts in your households?
Yes to all except UMich, NYU, and Cornell. Surprised no Columbia!
Not surprised by Columbia.
Least appealing Ivy to us + would choose another 8-10 T20 schools over it.
This was a US survey - if you start polling international Columbia would shoot up into the top 10, probably right behind Duke
+1 New York is a major draw for internationals
It’s also a major draw for domestic people too! Doesn’t explain why Columbia misses in the top 10.
