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.

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.

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.

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