Subject: How well known are “lower-tier” Ivys internationally?
As a Yale grad who lives in Europe, most people have heard of it. From Gossip Girl/Gilmore Girls if nothing else.

Now we have a tier system within the ivies? The dc area achievement culture is so ridiculous.

HYSP & Berkeley are very well known.
Other top tier state schools like Michigan and Wisconsin are also well known, definitely more than Brown/Cornell/Dartmouth, I think partly because they are large enough that ppl are reasonably likely to have come across someone who went there.
Then the more science-focused privates like MIT, Hopkins, Carnegie Mellon, because medicine, science, and engineering are very prestigious career paths, even more than in the US.

Are you joking regarding Columbia having a brand?
Columbia has the New York effect, same as NYU.
Of course, people choose Columbia for NYC but I have never heard of it having a brand. It doesn’t.
Uhhh no. Columbia falsified data that led to higher rankings for a decade. Both were t10 then and columbia rightfully is not now. Penn ranks higher in US and world ratings for clear objective reasons. Both are much more renowned than the bottom ivies, Dartmouth/Brown/Cornell but Penn is no question ahead of Columbia and has been for almost 50 yrs
Columbia/Cornell/Dartmouth are the bottom Ivies. Brown is above them, but below Penn.
Truth.

And yet you respond. Hmmm. . .
Your post makes no sense. None whatsoever. Commenting on stupidity in no way brings the commenter to the same level.
But you guys just keep on farting in the closet.

This is absolutely not true. Emory? Really? Duke, maybe, but not Emory. Cripes.
Very true .Emory medicine, Emory doctors are very famous Dartmouth isn't known for anything other than being WASP Disneyland.

Maybe you are living in the past.
US News has Penn at #6 best university, #1 business school, #3 medical school, #4 best law school.
For business schools, there is no better brand than Wharton.
US News Global University ranking has Columbia at #9 best university in the world and UPenn at #16.
Perhaps they have not yet corrected for the fraudulent data reported by Columbia.
The data for global ranking is only from objective data, not the kind of biased survey data the undergraduate ranking is using.
Columbia has been intentionally reporting false objective data about themself to boost their rankings. It has nothing to do with surveys.
Please read how they rank, they use public information that anyone can find, not reported by any of the school.
They also use survey results which a post previously and incorrectly said they did not use.
If you look at the methodology you would see how worthless this specific ranking is.

Is there a “wow-factor” to the average joe in asian/ european countries, or do more prominent west coast schools like Stanford and Cal Berkeley still have an edge?
If you are a foreigner, I would also love to hear your personal insight in your respective circle/country.
If at Brown or Dartmouth you’d know, so try not to worry too much about at this stage. First need to get in.
