Dartmouth or Princeton?

<p>Nice choice to make!
Our son graduated from Dartmouth last year, but we live in the Princeton area and spend quite a bit of time on the campus. Externally, Princeton offers a lot more than Dartmouth in terms of access to metropolitan areas, on campus speakers, etc. Facilities are superior and dining is much better than Dartmouth’s offerings. Quality of education is probably equal. Of the Ivy’s, these are the two schools that really do focus on the undergraduate. Princeton does seem to have have a higher “brand recognition” nationally.</p>

<p>Here is a link to a column in the Daily Princetonian in which an insider, who attended both schools, gives a perspective.</p>
