Harvard vs. Princeton

[Lord_Asquith]

<p>

In fact, Harvard FAS has ~2400 graduate students and ~6500 undergraduates. Princeton has 2295 graduate students and 4790 undergraduates this year. So comparing arts & sciences across the board, Harvard undergrads outnumber the grad students who matter almost 3-to-1 vs. Princeton’s 2-to-1.

Thanks for the clarification. So the grad-undergrad ratio is apparently more “favorable” for Harvard. But since Princeton’s absolute numbers are still smaller, I would say that Princeton students still get more attention. Do you happen to know FAS’s endowment? Then we can also have a resources-per-student comparison (though apparently Princeton is already more favorable in this measure even considering the entire Harvard endowment…).</p>

<p>Would you agree that a Harvard Med School student receives more attention from the Med School than undergrads do from FAS?</p>
