Yes. I went to Harvard. I also went to Brown, Yale and Princeton. And if you're wondering about the significance of these 4 universities, they are 4 of the 8 Ivy League universities. The colleges everyone would like to go to, but few get in.
Many believe that graduating from any of these universities ensure a successful career. In fact, it seems like dropping out from any of these universities ensures even greater success. As shown by Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg, both dropouts from Harvard.
My sister Mabel was visiting and has a list of things to do. She's always wanted to, or so she says, go to an Ivy League College and so decided to do just that. Albeit visit them. And so we did a 2 day trip and went to Yale, Harvard and Brown. Mabel had visited Princeton on a previous trip and so now has completed a visit to half the Ivy League colleges.
Yale
Harvard
Brown
Princeton
She has 4 more colleges to go to. I'm guessing we'll visit the remaining 4 during her next visit. The eight institutions are Brown University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Harvard University, Princeton University, the University of Pennsylvania, and Yale University. The term Ivy League has connotations of academic excellence, selectivity in admissions, and social elitism. There's an extremely well written wiki page that gives information on everything you've ever wanted to know about the Ivy League Universities.
