Have degrees from both NYU and Columbia University. Columbia is an Ivy League school and is ranked #4, while NYU is ranked #32 in the nation, but for what I was there for (Finance/Accounting), its business school is ranked #10 in the nation.
To be honest, what I paid for in attending both of these schools was mainly a network of high profile friends. Some of these friends came from affluent families with money and a distinguished last name, while others were just incredibly smart and talented, which served to make them leaders in their respective fields.
