Columbia is an Ivy League school. There is no question of which is better unless you have a specific major in mind that is offered at NYU and not Columbia. Columbia has a huge endowment and therefore can give a lot of financial aid, NYU does not although there is some aid available (grants as opposed to loans) for top applicants and minorities. It goes without saying that Columbia is much more competitive in terms of admissions.
