Okay, I might be completely biased because I go to Yale, but from what I hear it's sometimes very miserable at Harvard. Their newspaper even wrote in article conceding defeat in that area. The general population at Yale is in love with Yale, and Yalies, and college life. I don't regret the decision one bit. ANOTHER GOOD ANSWER They are both fantastic schools. I want to go to Yale for my bachelor's degree and the go to Harvard Medical School. But Harvard does have a defeating reputation and Yale can be just as reputable, but go by information on their websites, and what you want to major in and the specialty you want to be in. Harvard and Yale are both good on a lot of things so go by what you find out.
It's not really, just expensive and they have a long running rivalry with Harvard. The only difference is Yale has The Skulls and maybe you can join them too.
Harvard, Yale, Stanford and all the Ivies are so hard to get into, because thet get so many qualified applicants. If they have 1,000 slots, and have 5,000 applicants that all have 4.0+ GPA's, all have perfect SAT's and all are Presidents of their class, the school is going to have to eliminate 4,000 students that are over qualified. The more qualified applicants a college recieves, the more selective they become. The value of the name Harvard or Yale alone draws many a student to apply, even if the school does not fit their style of learning.
It began in 1875, so it is 135 years old.

I think you are referring to Harvard, rather than Herbert. Harvard is a famous university in Massachusetts, and Mr. Obama decided he wanted to become a lawyer, so he was admitted to Harvard Law School in 1989. He graduated from there, with academic honors, in 1991.
Harvard University is a prestigious institution and not for sale, so it cannot be purchased. The cost of attending Harvard includes tuition and fees, which for the 2023-2024 academic year is approximately $57,000 annually, not including room, board, and other expenses. The total cost of attendance can exceed $75,000 per year. However, the university itself remains a public and academic entity, not a commodity.
There would be some argument as to which is the most famous university in the world, so there will be argument as to where the most famous university is. It might be Cambridge or Oxford in England; it might be the Sorbonne in France; it might be Harvard, Princeton, or the University of California at Berkeley in the US or it might be any of several other universities around the world.
Oxford is better recognized in the world (I mean third world countries, south Asia, and other non-Western regions) than Harvard. It's also about 400 years older than Harvard, and in fact is the oldest university in the English-speaking world. An Oxford degree always, no matter the discipline, carries a certain cachet in the world.But Harvard is, of course, Harvard. You can't go wrong either way, but I would personally choose Oxford, because it is not just well-known or prestigious, but truly legendary.
The eight Ivy League schools are: Brown University (Providence, Rhode Island) Columbia University (New York City) Cornell University (Ithaca, New York) Dartmouth College (Hanover, New Hampshire) Harvard University (Cambridge, Massachusetts) University of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) Princeton University (Princeton, New Jersey) Yale University (New Haven, Connecticut) The Ivy League was established in 1954 as an athletic conference, so even though each of the eight schools has a long and distinguished history, the distinction doesn't necessarily have anything to do with academics.
"Prestigious beliefs" would be any of the so called mainstream religions. The big five would be:* Judaism * Christianity * Islam * Buddhism * HinduismThe use of the term prestigious beliefs appears to be used quite often in reference to introduction of rural or isolated groups to the larger Eastern and Western cultures to which these smaller groups have begun to become assimilated.
If you mean public school, they are almost the same. Private schools, especially universities, are much more demanding in the US (Harvard, MIT, Yale) because of resources and income are taken for granted, so they can be much more selective on future candidates.
