I'm relatively young (25) and I still get goosebumps whenever I see online courses on cutting edge technologies offered by universities for free. What an amazing time to be alive.

In the interest of keeping you from making the mistake again, and possibly in company that wouldn't be forgiving, the term "ivy league" isn't a generic term for academically prestigious schools but refers to a specific group of schools in the northeast us. Brown University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Harvard University, Princeton University, the University of Pennsylvania, and Yale University.

edited, thanks for the correction!
Not that it makes any difference, but Berkeley isn't an Ivy League school.
