<p>What are the pros and cons of each? Is it true Harvard gives more opportunities to its undergraduates then Yale? Which should I choose to apply to?</p>

<p>I really hope you know the difference between then and than.</p>

<p>Yeah that thread is three years old though</p>

<p>Apply to both and it’ll increase your chances (albeit a little) of getting in. Worry about which to go to later, if you get accepted to both.</p>

<p>both schools contain 95% of their value in their name brand recognition!
if you want a better more supportive, happier environment choose yale (IMO)
if you can look past the silly HYP fluff…choose carelton,haverford, hendrix or muhlenberg.</p>

<p>I think Yale cares about their undergrads more than Harvard</p>

<p>I think the many older threads on <insert ivy="" league="" schoolx=""> versus <insert ivy="" league="" school="" y=""> are perfectly valid. Those institutions don’t change much in three years.</insert></insert></p>

<p>Harvard imo</p>

<p>No, the opportunities they receive should be the same.</p>

<p>Apply to both. Personally, i’ve heard Yale > Harvard for education; Harvard > Yale for networking.</p>

Personally, I’ve heard it’s very hard to get into both. :rolleyes:</p>
