These schools are so different. I would find a way to visit both and let your gut decide. Duke is “as good” as many ivies and Columbia is “as good” as any of its ivy peers so don’t let ivy status or “HYPSM” contribute to the noise. Only people on CC make these meaningless distinctions.

This is a huge investment and will be the next four years of your life, so I’d find a way to visit Columbia and Duke and then decide.
