My kid had a choice between Harvard and MIT full pay, but instead chose Alabama on a full ride.

If you look at the Nature study, https://www.nature.com/articles/s41599-024-03547-8, Harvard has a HUGE advantage. Better than the rest of the Ivy League combined.

Sounds like you are insecure. I can guess why.


You clearly have me all figured out.

I went to MIT. I didn't apply to Harvard
But in retrospect Harvard would have been more enjoyable, a better alumni experience, less grinding.
I would pick Harvard and cross register selectively if something is unavailable. The calendars don't align perfectly look at them.

In the end, it will depend on the student. If introverted, Stanford. If they want to coast, Harvard. If they want to be really challenged, MIT.

MIT or Princeton or Harvard. Stanford CS is full of people trying to hustle their way to getting their GPT wrapper an inflated valuation.

How does he wish to engage his creative side? If he wants to perform at the collegiate level, he should consider that the schools with a less creative reputation would have less intense competition for, say, spots on the orchestra.

Good point…if anyone here knows, I hear a lot about opportunity for Harvard and MIT students to cross register. I realize there are some restrictions on the MIT side, but my question is whether this cross registration really happens in any quantitative way vs being a theoretical option. For those that did it, why?
