In Engineering, Columbia has the edge. In the Physical Sciences and Mathematics, both schools are strong. Overall, Brown and Columbia are peers, no ands, ifs or buts.

I would go for fit. Those are two vastly different universities. Columbia is very urban, populated largely by graduate students and has a very substantial core. Brown on the other had has a more suburban feel, is primarily made up of undergraduate students and has no core whatsoever.

Are you an independent learner? Brow is best suited for slef-starters. Either way, make no mistake, Brown is a heavy weight and certainly as good as Columbia, particularly at the undergraduate level.
