最近Business Insider以六项指标将八所常春藤大学进行了排名，这些指标包括学术（Academics），助学金额度（Affordability），校园（Campus），就业机会（Job Prospects），学生群体（Student Body）和学生生活（Student Life）。不出意外布朗垫底，而哈佛耶鲁和普林斯顿分列前三名。康乃尔虽然是常春藤中录取率最高的，但这项排名她居中间位置列第五。做出这项排名的机构认为，哈佛耶鲁与普林斯顿三巨头理应自成一体("One thing is for certain — Harvard, Yale, and Princeton are in a league of their own")，因为他们与其他常春藤大学的差别太明显了。
