Not possible. Sorry to disappoint.
No. For that matter, you’d have a hard time convincing anyone with any qualifications from an online university, no matter which university it is.
Absouletly not, many employers do not even take online educations seriously.
Ivy school admissions is not like buying a ticket to a concert. Many kids’ parents begin working for an Ivy school in kindergarten. College is a place to learn ideas from other students as much as going to class. You make contacts who will help you through the career building years. Ivy is probably being equaled by many private universities and colleges. You cannot get a meaningful person building education on a computer. Sure you are a smart kid; but, I think you need to talk an education counselor- not from a public school. Hire an independent professional to tell you the truth after giving a battery of tests. BTW: have you taken your SATs? Hollywood movie culture creates these high hopes where a person can "just do it." Forgetting most Ivy types have spent 12-13 years preparing for the chance to attend the school of his/her choice.
Let’s see…
Brown – I don’t believe so. Couldn’t find any distance learning offerings.
Columbia U. – yes
Cornell – http://www.sce.cornell.edu/dl/index.php
Dartmouth – yes
Harvard – http://www.extension.harvard.edu/
Princeton stopped doing distance learning – http://www.thecrimson.com/article.aspx?ref=160645
U Penn – yes, for some programs – http://www.upenn.edu/programs/distance.php
Yale – http://students.yale.edu/oci/search.jsp
I think Stanford does as well, but it’s kind of hard to find the right info. They have a cooperative with Singapore, but I’m not sure about for US students.
Good luck.
Nope, the ivy league is actually an athletic conference. Online schools can’t join because they don’t have sports teams.
