<p>based on percentage accepted, reputation, type of students rejected</p>
<p>don't bash my thread! im just curious</p>
<p>either cornell or dartmouth.</p>
<p>I think it's Cornell ED.</p>
<p>Dartmouth? Uhhhhhh no.</p>
<p>cornell is HUGE. that's why i think they have a higher acceptance rate...not necessarily b/c it's easier, it just has more spots. correct me if i'm wrong...</p>
<p>Poison ivy</p>

<p>The actual number of freshman spots is highest at Cornell due to BOTH it's larger size and higher acceptance rate than the other Ivies.</p>
<p>FWIW, which isn't much, remember people, the Ivies are a sports league.</p>
<p>According to most websites this is how it looks--></p>
<p>Easiest-->Cornell, U Penn, Dartmouth, Columbia=Brown, Yale, Princeton=Harvard<--Hardest</p>
<p>I know Cornell and Upenn have really high admissions rates for Early Decision, as does Columbia I think. </p>
<p>I would say Brown and Columbia are close. I think Brown might be a bit harder, because it gets so many applicants every year. The most out of all ivy leagues. And Brown also takes the least amount of applicants early decision. </p>
<p>And then Yale, Princeton, and Harvard are all pretty much an equal crapshoot. </p>
<p>But then again, I've heard of a kid getting rejected from Brown, but accepted to Harvard.</p>
<p>HYP are the hardest to get into because they have the largest applicant pools, not necessarily because they're the most selective. just thought i'd throw that out there.</p>
<p>guys.. you guys are so smart, but you haven't figured out the answer yet.. </p>
<p>Poison ivy is the easist ivies to catch.</p>
<p>Rofl I loved that response ^</p>
<p>^lol.</p>
<p>penn nursing has an over 40% acceptance rate. so if you're really just looking for the ivy title, apply there=)</p>
<p>lol if Cornell is the easiest, what are the requirements to get into it, that's more important than easy or not to be accepted :D</p>
<p>In terms of acceptance rate: 2008</p>
<ol>
<li>Harvard (7.1%)</li>
<li>Yale (8.6%)</li>
<li>Princeton (9%)</li>
<li>Columbia (10.1%)</li>
<li>Dartmouth (13.2%)</li>
<li>Brown (13.4%)</li>
<li>Penn (16.4%)</li>
<li>Cornell (21.5%)</li>
</ol>
<p>Don't base it on percentages. Yale, for example might see something in you that Cornell does not. It's a crapshoot.</p>
<p>There are ton of students that apply to Harvard just for the hell of it since its a brand name school or their parents may have pressured them to apply because "you never know what can happen..."</p>
