In the world as a whole, Cornell is VERY well regarded. World rankings put it higher than many other Ivy’s.

In the US - it’s also considered very prestigious. People always comment and seem impressed when I say I go to Cornell. The stuff you see on CC, honestly, is usually from insecure highschoolers/college freshman who were rejected from Cornell, went to a school close to CU in rankings, and then try to bring CU down so that they don’t overtake their school in the rankings game, thus justifying going to the other school.

It’s sad. Ignore it.
