<p>I would think that Yale would probably serve your career interests better. I mean the Yale network IMO is stronger and more well developed. Because of the residential system it builds community, for example my interviewer and her husband both went to yale, got married in Battel Church, and are apart of the local alumni club in Houston. I don’t know if Stanford has an alumni club of houston, but the Yale group seemed the most cohesive and connected, which will certainly help.</p>

<p>I don’t think this is true in all parts of the country. I live in Texas and the whole whole Ivy label really is not that great. I did not even know about Dartmouth and UPenn until the admission season, but I have known of Stanford. The northeast may be more concerned with the 8 schools more than other regions of the country.</p>
