I’m just going to be honest. Cornell is like the Michigan or Urbana Champaign of the Ivies. The intellectually brilliant student body here is very small as opposed to schools like Yale, Princeton or MIT or even schools like Chicago and Penn. I don’t even think Cornell’s intellectual atmosphere compares to Brown’s. IMO with the strong exception of the engineering and architecture colleges which easily attract elite talent, Cornell is more or less on par with WashU, UCs and Notre Dame. I would be tempted to say it is inching higher every year but the best it will probably ever reach is Vandy or Northwestern level of undergraduate body.
