Yale vs. Cornell for M.Arch I

0
mononoaware

I got back from Yale's open house and here's what I've learned:

- collaborative environment

- intellectual and scholarly (emphasis were given on GRE Analytical Writing for admission)

- opportunities at NY

- opportunities to travel

- pluralistic

- lots of big name faculty

- great facilities

 

I also have Cornell in mind but I wasn't able to attend their open house. I know Yale has more prestige and is higher on the ranking, but I'd like to know what Cornell is like compared to Yale since a good fit is also important. So far I know that Cornell has around 24 students per M.Arch I class while Yale has 50-60, and Cornell is 3.5 years that includes a thesis semester while Yale is 3 years. I got more financial aid from Yale than from Cornell. Perhaps the presence of B.Arch students at Cornell also makes a difference? Does Yale generally attract better faculty and more connections?
