Do you know much about ivy league schools? I always wanted to go to one when I was younger.
I know that they are a collegaite athletic conference including sports teams from 8 private universities in the US NE regions
Yes they're very elite. They're expensive but I always thought they were so prestigious and special. Harvard is one of the most well-known ones.
Right of course. When people say Ivy league they usually are referring to these schools as more then in just a sports context even though thts kind of what Ivy league started as
It's awful. I think they should be considered the elite academic universities they are rather than based off of their sports teams. Do you know what some of the other ivy leagues are?
I agree! Youve got Columbia, Dartmouth, University of Pennslyvania, Princeton, Harvard, Yale, Cornell, and Brown University! 
I was going to go to Cornell. They sent me a lot of letters based off my ACT scores and GPA. I regret not going but I was so set on NYU.
NYU is a great school! Thats amazing either way you go, you must be wicked smart! The whole Ivy league term was used as early as 1933, becoming official after the NCAA athletic conference in 1954!
Thank you. I preferred the creative nature of NYU over other schools. I also wasn't aware that the term ivy league has been around for so long.
That makes sense! Yes! Believe it or not, 7/8 of the schools were founded during the colonial period! Talk about old!!
