<p>I don't care about CA's majority in applicants and students. It doesn't matter. Let me reiterate:</p>
<p>"There's really nothing you can say that will convince anyone that Stanford doesn't have national/international prestige. Fart out as many numbers as you want, no one in the country is going to say Stanford isn't prestigious."</p>
<p>omg baba you are such a loser. how can you give up so much of your day to trashing a school. doesnt that seem kinda depressing to you??? please go out and have fun or at least move on to a board that likes you.</p>
<p>its funny to me that princeton lags behind HYS in desirability to prospective students, but is ranked far ahead in the happiness of its students by PR. (i shouldnt exclude myself, i found stanford more desirable while i was applying to schools, probably cuz im a princeton townie and i wanna get away from my parents. but now, im really warming up to the place. its alot of fun, the people are welcoming, and the campus is beautiful. of course stanford has palm trees, but still.)</p>
<p>yeah everyone i know from princeton has enormous school pride. Its an amazing school and I can tell you will be happy there. good luck</p>
<p>I was on the stanfurd campus today for the first time in a while and as much as I hate to say it, it is a simply amazing campus. I still prefer Berkeley to Palo Alto, but I might actually like your campus better.</p>
<p>An0nym0u5, Stanford is ranked higher than Princeton in all of PR's "Quality of Life" rankings. </p>
<p>In the "Happy Students," rankings, Stanford is ranked 3rd whilst Princeton is ranked 18th. </p>
<p>Stanford, for that matter West Coast colleges, always seem to rank very high in "Student Satisfaction," surveys. I think its because of all the sunshine that releases endorphins and makes people happy.</p>

<p>Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.</p>
<p>hahahaha.......</p>
<p>Those Princeton Review "rankings" are not rankings at all, but the result of tiny surveys obtained by passing out questionnaires on street corners in college towns. Students rate their own campus only (best library, most beer, happiness level, etc) and do absolutely no "ranking" of other schools. They wouldn't be qualified to do so in any event.</p>
<p>Thus we see the phenomenon where BYU has the "best" library, and Yale may not even be on the list. At some elites, demanding students may downgrade their library because it isn't open all night - a factor that may not have weighed heavily at BYU!</p>
<p>Guys, please don't mess around with Wikipedia. It's there to be a comprehensive, online encyclopedia. Leave the trash-talking and school-bashing to the CC forums.</p>
<p>No one has provided me facts by calling admission office that L.Stanford Junior College is not CA school. Check out Lowell High School Placement in SF. There are five Noble prize alumni fron that school. 50% UC system. University of California at Stanford basically competes with its nemesis UC Berkeley.</p>
<p>what useless whining. H=Y=P=S=M, any way you slice it. they just have different styles that appeal to different people. so pick ur poison.</p>
<p>HYP: worldclass Ivy
MIT is Tech
Stanford is CA regional with 60% applicants from CA and enrollment from CA.They get mostlly UCB rejects.</p>
<p>Their stock is selling for $3.76</p>
<p>"HYP: worldclass Ivy," are there other types of Ivy?</p>
<p>"Stanford is CA regional with 60% applicants from CA and enrollment from CA.They get mostlly UCB rejects."</p>
<p>im sorry but thats complete ********.</p>
<p>"Stanford is CA regional with 60% applicants from CA and enrollment from CA.They get mostlly UCB rejects."</p>
<p>could you please cite your source! are you like a comedian or somthing baba? that statement is frickin hilarious. It was in fact the biggest load of bull crap that I have ever seen! hahahahaaha.</p>
<p>do the math idiots, no wonder you got in at UC at Palo alto. 45% enrollment from(see <a href="http://www.stanford.edu%5B/url%5D">www.stanford.edu</a> UG enrollment), 700 of class, 2/3 yield means 1050 admits at 12% rate is about 10000 applications from CA. Take 1500 international out, add 3000 applications for West then you have 13000/17500 for US applicants.( total applicants are 19000 with 6-7% international. So you see 70% applicants are around CA, which represents about 20% of US Population. It is a regional school like NWU in midwest.</p>
<p>Check Menlo school(next to Palo alto)placement : UCB 62, Stanford 40, IVY 80( 2002-2004). How many ou you got EA at stanford, then applied HYP RD got rejected? Now u are a cross admot data, ha ha hah hahaha hahahahahaha!!!!!</p>
