Because I'm allergic to pretentious shit I nearly throwed up visiting universities in Oxford being like ah oh uh we have our own rowing thing (definitely more pretentious than that but allergy) and everyone in my class was there like :0 while I stood there like fucking capitalist pigs honestly you should all be punished for breathing you utter scum, the audacity to fool around being rich wankers having fun and spending ridiculous amounts on things while your working class peers work their ass of so you don't have to lift a finger doing anything of value or productivity in your entire life, your life is just constant fun and I am against it.
Ignoring all that, if you think it will look good on your resume being at an ivy league school you should wait as long as you can fill the extra time with something else, more studying, charity.. whatever people do
I mean, it's not like everyone going to those schools are super rich and pretentious. I've visited Columbia last time I was in NY and haven't met one person who acted like that. But I'm sorry if that was your experience!
