<p>No, it is definitely not known in England or in most of Europe for that matter.</p>
<p>Ok, well what about Georgetown? Known in the UK?
(We have extended family from there...just wondering if they will know the value if D is accepted.)</p>
<p>If you ask around Europe about it, you'll mostly this get this response : "University of Notre Dame? That's where the weirdo hunchback went to college, isn't it?"</p>
<p>Where are you from Negru?</p>
<p>Georgetown is only really known in certain circles.</p>
<p>1) Harvard
2) Yale
3) Princeton
4) Columbia
5) Brown
6) Dartmouth
7) Penn
8) Cornell</p>
<p>as a non ivy, uc berk is probably the next best known... and prolly beats a few of the ivys (Dartmouth brown maybe cornell maybe penn, though penn is world knwon for wharton)</p>
<p>Berkeley is the best known "non-ivy" to the average foreigner and as you stated is known more than Cornell, Darthmouth, and Penn. Though of course in the scholarly world there are many others.</p>
<p>I wasn't aware of all the universities that comprised the ivy league until a few months ago when I began my American college search.</p>
<p>I--like quilde--did not know all eight ivy-league schools before I found this website, but that was two years ago. </p>
<p>I only knew HYP and Penn...the other 4, I knew they were great schools, but didn't know they were ivy-league necessarily</p>
<p>Something objective:</p>
<p>SAT avgs:
Harvard
Yale
Princeton
Dartmouth
Columbia
Penn
Brown
Cornell</p>
<p>Acceptance rate:
Yale
Harvard
Princeton
Columbia
Brown
Dartmouth
Penn
Cornell</p>
<p>As an immigrant, before arriving in America, I only knew of three Ivy League universities: Yale, Princeton, and Harvard. I think I had learned of them mostly through the media, not the avenues one might suspect.</p>
<p>Georgetown is famous in Spain because the King's son went there for grad school a few years back.</p>
<p>if penn was just wharton what would it rank</p>
<p>People all over the world see the starting salary for Wharton grads and go crazy, I would rank it 4th after HYP</p>
<p>do HYP have undergrad business programs anyways?</p>
<p>they have economics majors but not business programs</p>
<p>Who brought this out of the gutter???</p>
<p>I believe it was Narcissa. I would also argue that Stanford is better known outside of the U.S. than Berkeley.</p>
<p>Berkeley is very well-known in the world, but also overrated in Asian communities. People have some distorted perception that just because Berkeley GRAD is impressive, their UNDERGRAD is just as good.</p>
<p>Harvard
Princeton
Yale
UPenn
Columbia
Dartmouth
Brown
Cornell</p>
