The Business school for an MBA, maybe, though traditionally a lot of that was people more having already been chosen as executive material and sent off for polishing than trying to burnish a resume. That might be decades out of date, though.

You might be fetishizing the credential too much. I went to a lesser Ivy but it’s not like I have a ticket into that world – maybe if I held their head back while they puked and joked about our Finance class over Madden and kept their rapes quiet, and going to an Ivy granted me that chance, but the whole thing at stake is I didn’t take advantage of all those chances
