I’m ok with this, but take out Columbia
Agree Columbia is out
There is a research article about how employers of elite firms view these schools, titled “Ivies, Extracurriculars, and Exclusion: Elite Employers' Use of Educational Credentials,” by Professor Lauren Rivera of Northwestern University.
Here’s a quote from the study:"Brown, Cornell, Dartmouth, and University of Pennsylvania (Arts and Sciences) were frequently described as 'second tier' schools that were filled primarily with candidates who 'didn’t get in' to a super-elite school."
In other words, employers from elite investment banks and such generally group both Columbia and Wharton with HYP instead of the rest of the ivies. I think it’s fair to say that both Columbia and Wharton are elite.
No in most finance circles, Wharton is a step above Columbia
Wharton is 3 steps above Columbia!
No one gives an F about Wharton except the people who went there. And certainly no one cares about UPenn.
Certainly more so than Columbia though
The vast majority of people in this country and in the world think UPenn is the state flagship of the state of Pennsylvania. The people who do know only learn about the school midway through high school when they Google which colleges are in the Ivy League and realize that UPenn is one. Absolutely no one thinks of it more highly than Columbia, which has a doubled cachet being the NYC Ivy, is higher ranked, more prestigious, and more selective.

Columbia has lots of not so bright kids, as is evident in that other thread started by the Columbia kid giving excuse after excuse.

I hear you, but what they’re really saying is HPY. Those are the super-elite, not just because of the students, but the professors, the network, the history. Those schools have it all. Drop the mic. And, no, I’m not a booster; I didn’t go to any of them.
I don’t think it’s a good idea to use history as an argument for HYP. You’ll end up uncovering things about the country’s past that you wish you wouldn’t have found out about.

So is “(Wharton).” So pathetic to pick out as a single program as a proxy for a less impressive university (Penn).

I believe Sasha was admitted to Yale but choose Michigan. Maybe because she has friends at Michigan. Maybe she wanted less academic rigor. As you know Yale is much more academically rigorous than Harvard.
Or maybe, having attended the Lab School and Sidwell Friends, she wanted a different experience.
