- Thread starter Finesse
- Start date
I denied acceptance letters from California Institute of Technology, University of Chicago, Howard, and NYU. Does that count?

...go do something productive with ya'self man. Again, no way in hell would I be on here if graduated from an Ivy. Y'all have an all access pass (or supposed to) ... that's the purpose of going to an Ivy! And you're on here?!
Do what you do, man...
One of the freakiest and explicit chicks onattended Dartmouth. A UPenn grad got eggs and pancakes smeared on his car after getting with a Brooklyn poster. One of my favorite and sharpest female posters graduated from Stanford. One of the mods here went to business school in an unofficial Ivy with a full ride but loses points for being a Kobe Stan.
Enjoying fukkery is universal

...You're getting at what others have said in this thread...
Brokering deals, schmoozing with the 1 percent, jetsetting... I wouldn't waste a day on here... (maybe on the phone at an airport during a layover)... But I'd eat, sleep and shyt turning more high profile contacts into connections and making more money...
Maybe I say that because that potential to have that level of accessibility is foreign... as others have said, y'all are people, too.
I'm romanticizing and typecasting for sure...... but I just couldn't see becoming a vested, SOHH/Coli community member with an Ivy education. Shyt wouldn't even cross my mind.
My visits would all be situational, and few are far in between. I'd be trying to play that Ivy card everyday in everyway... Pardon us commoners, bro... I'm just spewing class warrior shyt.
i'm just missing the part that would prevent us from doing both, all that fancy stuff you're talking and posting on the coli, too. i'm failing to grasp whatever blocks the 2 from occurring simultaneously.

I'm just doubting I'd think like that... Again I'm typecasting... why are you on here now?!
It's the AM... early. Go make some money! lol!A buddy of mine went to Penn ... he's always on his phone brokering major deals. He... rarely idles, and when he does, it's something very... whitebread-ish if you will.
Another associate went to Harvard... she's super quirky and super weird. Doesn't really fukk with the Web at all...
Just saying, my mind wouldn't wanna even gravitate toward here... it'd be at the bottom of my to do list.
i am breh, you're only taking up one of my 7 screens right nowI'm just doubting I'd think like that... Again I'm typecasting... why are you on here now?!

Thanks for the reassurance. Can't be pissing this shyt away...
fukk you mean...go do something productive with ya'self man. Again, no way in hell would I be on here if graduated from an Ivy. Y'all have an all access pass (or supposed to) ... that's the purpose of going to an Ivy! And you're on here?!
Do what you do, man...
stop believing in some Ivy halo b, yeah some mediocre Ivy kids will land in decent spots cuz of their degree but it's competitive as fukk at the top and a lot of better state school kids make it over Ivy brehs for jobs, promotions/moving to better companies, etc
Unless you got a really dope scholarship - the student loans ain't worth the ivy league diploma. IMO

they call themselves an "ivy of the south" just like stanford calls itself "ivy of the west" but its not an ivy. if you go around in college educated circles talking about you go to an ivy league school then say duke they're gonna look at you likethen
remember the ivy league was created as a sports league, not necessarily for elite education purposes. there are better schools that arent in the ivy league (like Stanford) and mediocre schools in the ivy league (like Cornell).
schools from best to worst in the ivy league (my opinion only): Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Dartmouth, Columbia, UPenn, Brown, Cornell. Studying CS at any of those schools will give you a top tier education, though. as for the black experience I can only really comment on the one I went to. The african-american community is highly intellectual at all of them, as expected. The schools try very hard to be diversified. Manage your expectations, though. Going to a school in a big city will be better than one in the boonies, as a black person. But I wouldnt be too hung up on it either way. You'll find your friends, you'll have a good time, you wont experience much overt racism (remember these are all educated people) but most of the white kids come from rich white neighborhoods so they really dont know many black people wherever they came from. Lots of kids from NYC though too, who do.
Just go to the best school you can, get your degree, then live your life with a good job and good connections
This is good advice, read it carefully. I went to an Ivy for grad school, and while it offers great connections and some good experiences, I think generally they are overrated.
