I mean if you really wanted to see an artificial ranking of prestige, you could just use the rankings that USNews and Forbes posted. It sounds to me like you’re still pretty early in the college search seeing your list is mostly ivys and OOS public schools. All of these schools are very prestigious, but you should really be looking for so much more in a school than the name.
Seems, like you if you were willing to do your own homework, you could make your own such announcements…

Guys, I’ve already applied to my own share of universities. I just want to know other people’s opinions on these universities out of curiosity. And please don’t tell me that there is more to a school than the name! I know that well. Thanks again!
