What is the lowest ranking Ivy League school? and least selective?
966558
probably cornell, in both categories.  penn also has a high (relative) admit rate, but it's bigger.  fewer people apply to cornell because it has less name recognition and it's in the middle of nowhere.

It doesn't matter what school you go too.  You can go to harvard and still be stupid. Just strive to be the best at what you do.

It's a small college in the town of Knave, NC. It's on a bluff over looking Conniver Gorge. Not sure if it is an Ivy League school but I know there are several notorious people that have their degree from there. Michael Jackson's plastic surgeon,  O.J. Simpsons anger management therapist, and Willie Nelsons tax accountant to name a few.\nGood Luck

Here it is, by the US News and World Report, Princeton University is the best in the nation  ties only with Harvard. Pretty darn prestigious. Not only is the education incredible, but the ties that students receive last a lifetime and will always prove valuable.

The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Columbia College Chicago would be a passable second choice.

Here's the latest rating list.  Harvard, Stanford, and Wharton (Penn) usually top the list.  But there are many good schools.  Very few can get into Harvard.  (They even turned ME down!) \n\nBest of luck to you.

MIT, Harvard, Princeton, Stanford and Berkeley, according to U.S News.  But it really depends too on what you want to do with it.  Different schools have different strengths.

A top (if not THE top) journalism school: University of Missouri-Colombia\n\n\nGo to collegeboard.com to get information on averages at every  university or college. \nAs far as recommendations on other schools to consider: it depends on what field you want to go to? And do you want to go to an Ivy League school, a private school, or a state school? Ivy League schools are not always the best, it depends on your major. Do your research.\n\nHere is info on Yale (from collegeboard.com):\n\nAdmission requirements:\n\n    * Essay(s) required\n    * SAT Reasoning and SAT Subject or ACT Required (ACT writing optional)\n\nVery important admission factors:\n\n    * Character/Personal Qualities\n    * Class Rank\n    * Application Essay\n    * Extracurricular Activities\n    * Recommendations\n    * Rigor of secondary school record\n    * Standardized Test Scores\n    * Talent/Ability\n    * Academic GPA\n\nConsidered:\n\n    * Alumni Relation\n    * Geographical Residence\n    * Interview\n    * Racial/Ethnic Status\n    * State Residency\n    * Volunteer Work\n    * Work Experience\n    * First generation college student\n\n\nSAT (the old one) Reasoning Verbal: 700 - 790 96%\nSAT (the old one) Reasoning Math: 700 - 790 96%\nACT Composite: 31 - 34 22%\n*700-790 equivalent to about 2200-2400 on the new SAT\n\n\nStudent Body\n1st-year students:\n\n    * 7% In-state students\n    * 93% Out-of-state students\n\n    * 49% Women\n    * 51% Men\n\n    * 1% American Indian/Alaskan Native\n    * 14% Asian/Pacific Islander\n    * 9% Black/Non-Hispanic\n    * 8% Hispanic\n    * 48% White/Non-Hispanic\n    * 7% Non-Resident Alien\n    * 12% Race/ethnicity unreported\n\n    * 95% in top 10th of graduating class\n    * 99% in top quarter of graduating class\n    * 100% in top half of graduating class

Depends...on what you're majoring in or interested in.  I always thought that Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and the Ivy League like school would be the best, but it all depends on your major.  Did you know that I you want to be a Equestrian Vet, Cinema or Graphic Artist, or Chef, these Ivy School would n't be the best.  \n\nSo figure out what you want or interested in learning...then the "best" school choices will come to you.

Cambridge is ranked higher than Oxford so there goes my vote. It is also the school that has received the most Nobel prizes - something like 80. Harvard has 30 plus

Try US-Reports.com. Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Penn, Duke, Stanford, and so on. Just one opinion, but at least they have their reasons. \nhttp://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/rankings/brief/natudoc/tier1/t1natudoc_brief.php

LIU  Long Island University or Columbia (for me)\nNotre Dame (for my eldest)\nUS Naval Academy (for my youngest)\nHarvard (for my husband)

No, not even, necessarily the top ones. \nThe Ivy League is actually an athletic conference, consisting of:\nBrown University\nColumbia University\nCornell University\nDartmouth College\nHarvard University\nPrinceton University\nUniversity of Pennsylvania\nYale University\nThere are lots and lots of other private colleges and universities, of different qualities, that are not in the Ivy League.

Boston U = located in Boston.  MIT = located in Cambridge, across the Charles River.\n\nMIT = far better school than BU.  BU is NOT an "Ivy Plus" - it is barely good enough to be a Tier 2 school in US News and World Report.  That doesn't mean it's a bad school, but it is not in the same league as even the "Public Ivies" like Virginia, Michigan, and Berkeley.  UCLA has a better rep than BU.

The previous answerers are just plain wrong.\n\nUS News and World Report (as well as any college professor) will tell you that Columbia is ranked academically much more highly than NYU.\n\nFor example, Columbia is ranked #9 and NYU is ranked #37 in US News' ranking of best universities in the US (see the link below).\n\nIf you are interested in liberal arts colleges, Barnard is by far the best in NYC.\nUS News and World Report (and again, any college professor) knows this.\nBarnard is ranked #27 among all liberal arts colleges nationwide.

Sorry, Your stats are not bad, but they don't come close to matching up with Princeton or the other top schools. I don't think you have any chance there.\n\nWhen I sat in on an admissions talk there last summer the counselor said that nearly all of their students were either the top or one of the top five students in their class at HS. They all took lots of AP courses and got A's. They have SAT scores that average over 2200. In other words, they are the best students in the USA.  And of course, they all have amazing extracurriculars. \n\nA 3.3 is only just barely average for US High Schools. So you should be looking at schools that match your level. \n\nIf you go to the websites of most colleges they have a section where they give the average SAT and ranks in class for their students. Try to find a good school where the kids match your numbers. There are LOTS of really good, respectable schools. If you like the atmosphere and kind of place that Princeton is in, you might look at Trinity College in Hartford, or Gettysburg College in PA. And there are lots more good schools to check out....
