Cornell

1. an elite Ivy League college often scorned by the other Ivies for having an "easy" admission rate, a fallacy that many people tend to buy. At 11% (2019-20), Cornell's admission rate is, in reality, one of the most selective schools in the United States and in the English-speaking world. By comparison, the admission rates of the most prestigious UK schools such as Cambridge and Oxford are at 15-20%.2. The only Ivy that doesn't issue a diploma inscribed in Latin. Until this day schools with a long historical standing like Harvard, Dartmouth, Yale, Brown, Penn, Princeton and Columbia still issue fancy Latin diplomas. Whereas younger colleges like UChicago, Stanford and MIT founded since the late 19th century only issue modern English diplomas.3. One of the most comprehensive universities. Like Harvard and Penn, Cornell has all the major schools including Law School, Business School, Medical School, School of Engineering, School of Design, and the College of Arts and Sciences
