What are you talking about? See, this is the problem with high schools today! Do you even know what Ivy League has to do with; not academics, SPORTS!! The Ivy League schools are, first and foremost, a sports league created many years ago. Ivy league schools are ONLY in the NORTHEASTERN part of the UNITED STATES. A simple google search would have told you that. If you cannot google, you cannot go Ivy. The ivy league schools are: UPenn Dartmouth Harvard Columbia Cornell Brown Princeton and Yale Edit: Roaring, as you might think it was rude (and funny), you, as a T.C., should know that there is a simple and effetive "search" buttom right on top of the website. As many know, there are probaly 3,929,132 questions on Ivy league school PER DAY! So, even if I was a little rude, it's not unjust. Hopefully, many that post about Ivy leagues can look at this post and take the "search" advice, lol.

That other poster may be being a bit rude (and a bit funny), but he's right. The Ivy League is a group of schools in a sports league in the US. Many of them are prestigious universities, yes. And I think that's what you're really asking: what are the most prestigious universities in Australia. There are no universities in Australia that are particularly famous, worldwide - not like Harvard is, for example. But there are some universities in Australia that rank extremely well, internationally, on rankings tables. They include: - Australian National University - University of Melbourne - University of Sydney - University of Queensland - Monash University - University of New South Wales Those tend to rank in the top 50, worldwide. I'll link you to one international university rankings table that I do like, below. I'm sure Australia must also have some sort of rankings tables as well.
