I really like both. I don't know which one to choose. A lot of you guys say that Yale is a bad school. I really like Princeton. I want to be a Psychiatrist, and I need to know which school has the better medical. I also want a degree in Literature because I am just very interested in poetry. Which is a better school?

Princeton's psycbology department has a better reputation than Yale's, and Yale's English department has a MUCH better reputation than Princeton's.  Both, however, are great schools, and you won't be making a mistake no matter which you choose.\n\nBut in making your decision, take a few other things into consideration:  Princeton is, overall, a much more politically conservative school, and more culturally homogeneous as well.  Yale is much overtly multicultural, and more politically progressive.   And mind you, I'm not telling you to choose the one most in line with your current politics -- you may want to choose the one that sounds most challenging to your convictions!\n\nAlso, Princeton is smaller, and therefore a bit more personal.  If you are shy, and need drawing out in class discussions, Princeton may be the better choice in that respect because of the smaller class sizes.\n\nYou will have little trouble getting into med school with a degree from either place, as long as your grades are good, and your MCAT scores are high.  So that's really not a factor.  \n\nThe bottom line is that your career goals may change, either slightly or dramatically, over the next four years.  So choose the place that you believe will both nurture and challenge you, and will offer the best resources and environment for you to grow intellectually, emotionally, socially, politically, and even spiritually.\n\nBest wishes!

The big pro of a large university is that they offer a wide range of courses and have  professors who do cutting edge research.\n\nThe cons are that you can get lost in the crowd and those great professors may be more interested in publishing their research than in teaching their students.  Even if they do care about their students, they may spend more time with their graduate students than their undergraduates.\n\nThe big pro of a smaller school is that you get more attention.  You might actually get to know your professors.  \n\nThe con is that there may be fewer choices.  A small school might have a few majors that are quite good -- but they will probably also have some that are scaled down.  The professors may care more about teaching, but not be on the cutting edge of research.\n\nYou may want to go to the Princeton Review's web site.  They have a tool that will help you find schools that are right for you.

I'm doing MA Eng Lit in York... the faculty is great here and the environment is best for studying, considering the fact that you will have no entertainment at all during the entire year. What's more, it's second in the country after Oxford!

I went to the New School for Social research for Summer School a long time ago. It was the best experience ever. The people that attend are independent thinkers and the school is extremely competitive. Just taking a couple of classes in Economics made me change my whole major. I liked Eugene Lang better than NYU because the classes are smaller and one gets more attention. (I went to Columbia U). Hope that helps.

I'd have to say A&M, although I'm biased because I went there. I wasn't an architecture major, but I'm interested in it and I enjoyed taking an architecture class and independent study project there. I had a friend who did arcitecture there who is in grad school at Yale now, so they seem to prepare people well. I don't know much about the other school, although Chicago does have some historic influence in architecture.

There is not truly one school better than the other.  It is all in how much you want to do this and how much you can achieve in learning.  Best of luck :)

First off, I went to Harvard.\nSecond off, I want to respond to the first asnwer on here, who talks about how the "Ivy leage was founded upon traditions of excellend, yada yada yada"\n\nlet me make this clear:\nTHE IVY LEAGUE IS NOTHING MORE THAN AN ATHLETIC CONFERENCE\nThat's all it is.\n"Ivy Leage" does not really mean anything about academics.\n\nIt just happens that all the Ivy League schools are very good.\nBut they are not equal.\nHarvard, Yale, and Princeton are consistently among the top 5 Unversities in the country.\nColumbia, Brown, Princeton, and UPenn are usually in the top 20 or so.\nCornell is not considered as strong.\nThere are several private universities which are better than some of the Ivies, and several State schools which are better than some of the Ivies.\n\nI don't mean to be obtuse about this, but I think the "Ivy League" has kind of a false reputation. People need to realize that all it really means is that those 8 schools compete against each other in sports, and that together, they are not the pinnacle of higher education. People should look at individual schools.\n\nNow, to actually answer your question about workload.\nI didn't actually feel that the workload at Harvard was that particularly difficult. And having spoken to my friends at several othe universities, including big state schools, I really don't think Harvard is any more difficult than they are.\nIn fact, I think some state schools are probably HARDER than Harvard. That's because at Harvard its VERY hard to flunk out. Pretty much the lowest possible grade you can get is a C. No one at Harvard gets Ds or Fs. Why is this? Is it because Harvard students are just naturally smart? Maybe... But many Harvard students, once they reach Harvard, develop bad study habits...just like students anywhere else. Many of them turn in sub-par work. A bad Harvard essay that gets a C could easily get a D or an F at a state school. That's because harvard wants to keep its retention rates and graduation rates high, and because most people are paying lots of money to be there.\nState schools dont care if they flunk people out, because their mission is to education the young people of the state, and there are always lots more who would be happy to take the place of those who flunk out.\n\nThat said, there's a lot of variability. Arizona State is probably easier than Berkeley. \n\nBut professors are professors, and no matter where they teach, they generally expect high quality work of students, or else they hand out poor grades.\n\nSo, in conclusion:\nI think the difference in difficulty between Ivies and state schools is neglible.\n\nRemember, too, that there is a huge range in difficulty between different departments within the same university.\nScience and engineering tends to be harder in grading than humanities. Thats a fact, whether you're talking about Harvard OR Arizona State.

RISD - Rhode Island School of Design is the number one school in the US for visual arts.\n\nSurprisingly Yale is #2.\n\nYour a good parent to support your child's dream and realize his true talent. I was lucky too, though they were a little shakey at first, my parents have always supported my love for art and I completed my B.A. in Graphic Design 4 years ago. I can't think of anything I love doing more!\n\nGood Luck! RISD looks amazing, if I could do it over, I'd go there, but I might still go back for an MFA

Actually, Yale has been ranked #1 for law schools for years :).  Not that it matters.\n\nBoth of those majors would be good for pre-law.  History is another good choice.  However, major in whatever makes you happiest.  What matters most is academic strength, obvious passion, and depth of interest. See below for further discussion.\n\nYou're looking for the following skills in majors:\nanalytical ability\nreading skills\nwriting skills\noral presentation skills.\n\nBut the best way to get there is not through your major per se, but rather through extra-curriculars, internships and work.  Intern with a prosecutor's office and see if you like working in that environment.  The Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division, Criminal Section prosecutes hate crimes.  They accept students  to work through the summers sometimes. Local prosecutors' offices would be easier to work for, I would think.\n\nStrongly consider taking time off between college and law school. Most students find that they are better students, more balanced for that choice.

Really depends on what you want to study. Once you determine that go with the better school for that subject. Also you should visit both schools and get a feel for the community, people, area, ect. When I was visiting schools it was very clear from the moment I walked on campus whether I would like it or not. It might be the same way for you. I have seen both schools campuses and I think that Cornell is in a great location, with an excellent repuation. USC is also a great school. But who wants to live in south central L.A.? I sure wouldn't. Good luck in your search.
