<p>I can't believe Columbia is so low on many of these lists.</p>

<p>Columbia is very different from the other Ivies socially so its not so surprising.</p>

<p>average rank based on the first 23 replies (22 for U Penn)
includes quakeroaties but not celebrian</p>

<p>Princeton 2.83
Dartmouth 3.74 (tie
Yale 3.74 (tie)
Brown 4.35
Harvard 4.39
U Penn 5.09
Cornell 5.65
Columbia 5.96</p>

<p>Hopefully, my calculations were accurate.</p>

<ol>
<li>Penn (Wharton)- best urban campus I've ever seen, great social scene, and Wharton!</li>
<li>Dartmouth- best "traditional" campus on eastcoast and amazing undergrad focus
Princeton- same as dartmouth, maybe not as pretty.</li>
<li>Columbia- NYC, what else could you want</li>
<li>Yale- MOST students seem less stressed and less competitive compared to Harvard and Cornell; also very nice campus, but New Haven sucks</li>
<li>Brown- open curriculum seems idealistic, but don't know if it fits me. Students seem very eclectic and a laid-back atmoshpere</li>
<li>Cornell- beautiful campus, but too techy for me.</li>
<li>Harvard- hmm...I just have not gotten a good impression of this school</li>
</ol>

<p>Based on who I'd want to run for, since the education is practically the same and that's the only thing that would make me choose one over the other.</p>

<p>1) UPenn
2) Princeton
3) Brown
4) Harvard
5) Dartmouth
6) Yale
7) Columbia
8) Cornell</p>

<p>updated average rank based on 33 rankings (32 rankings in the case of U Penn) - up to and including green_apple</p>

<p>Princeton 2.97
Yale 3.64
Dartmouth 4.18
Penn 4.38
Brown 4.55
Harvard 4.58
Cornell 5.67
Columbia 5.85</p>

<ol>
<li>Cornell- seeing as I already go here...</li>
<li>Princeton- seems like a smaller Cornell, more prestige, worse environment (IMO)</li>
<li>Columbia- living in NYC seems nice</li>
<li>Penn- same with Philly</li>
<li>Yale- nice architecture (and its where Rory goes...)</li>
<li>Dartmouth- isolated but good if considered as a LAC</li>
<li>Harvard- never really liked it much</li>
<li>Brown- I really hate this place for some reason...</li>
</ol>

<p>(BTW I'm an engineer wanting good undergraduate school...)</p>
