What are the differences between Harvard and Oxford University?
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
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.

∙ 13y agoWhen comparing the very top universities, it is hard to judge overall that one university is better then the other.
But you have to specify.
So in natural sciences, Cambridge is famous.
in Medicine, Harvard rules by far.
and so on...
