I'd say Dartmouth and Cornell are big names, but amongst those in the know the top LACs are as well. No, they're not Harvard in terms of prestige, but they're very good at what they do and that's respected by many. I'd encourage you to look closer at the schools and decide what you want in a school (hopefully with visits). All of the schools except Cornell are colleges, and I'd agree on paper they're very similar - LACs, lots of contact with professors, etc. and it would come down to fit. But Cornell is a huge school comparatively and you need to decide if that's what you want. Completely different environment - better for some, not for others.
