Not all Ivy leagues are on the same pedestal: H(Harvard), Y(Yale), P(Princeton) are seen as elite. Demographics just masquerade the real composition of students: kids of elite (billionaires and presidents of countries that matter to the national interests of the states) across the world are admitted. One has to dig into the pedigree of these students to get a real handle: otherwise, admitting a kid of a black billionaire is sold as doing 'justice' to past injustices of Slavery.
HYP may be elite but quite frankly it's to their own disadvantage. For funded startup founders as of 2023, the ranking list was 1) Stanford, 2)MIT, 3)UC Berkely, 4) Harvard, 5) Cornell.
Cornell is consistently seen as "not elite" and in a sense it isn't, same with Berkely. Each of these top 5 schools, besides Harvard, exude a scrappy spirit for challenging the status quo. HYP, is focused on dominating the EXISTING power structure, whereas Stanford, MIT, Berkely, and Cornell are focused on building their own power structure.
