im what they would call ultra high networth. there is no universe i would pay for a dartmouth or brown over schools better equipped for the current transformation that has been taking place this decade plus.

Genuine question. What schools would you pay for or which schools do you think are better equipped for the current transformation?

I have the same questions. There’s not enough quantifiable evaluation of outcomes or impact from these schools. I really hope to see more objective measures to assess the value of a college education—forget the meaningless bragging rights that parents often focus on. Not everyone cares about LV bags


stanford, mit, princeton have the highest starting salaries and employment rates and it is not a coincidence.


Some of it has to do with where their graduates end up. Stanford---SV is one of the most expensive places to live and salaries are commensurate. MIT---Boston is also ridiculously priced, higher salaries abound.
Princeton--likely to end up in NYC.

Take that away and then let me know how much higher it really is

depends: Stanford MIT are on par or better than the four ivies(HPPY) in the T10, .Northwestern and JHU are not. Chicago is not. Caltech is too different to compare to any of these schools.


LOL ! You really need to get out more.

Does it make sense to go to Harvard over MIT or CMU for a career in tech?

And Duke, Chicago, CalTech, Northwestern, Rice, Vanderbilt, and Johns Hopkins are all just as good as the 8 schools in the Ivy league. It's some very fine parsing to distinguish them from the Ivy schools. Different vibes. But qualitatively no different and often better - especially in STEM. Only Cornell and Princeton are really competing there. The Ivy schools will always have the benefit of history. But that matters less and less.


If you are going to talk about T20 rather than limiting to T10, then Georgetown, WashU, Emory, Notre Dame are on the table too.


lol someone's feeling got hurt.

No, why include Vandy and Rice but not these schools. That doesn't make sense.

yet Yale and other ivies/T10 have better job outcomes over UVA, across sectors


Are you sure about that? What is a "better job" for any given person?

+1 these posters know nothing about college education. They're shopping for the best tennis shoe brand. It's tedious.

That might be true. But each non-T5 has something really strong to offer. Pick the one that suits you best. Of course all T10 are in general all around strong.

Penn: Wharton
Northwestern: Journalism/Communication
JHU: Medicine
Chicago: Econ
