It comes down with how pretty your piece of paper is.

Both of you are confusing California Polytechnic State University with California Institute of Technology (Cal Tech).
FWIW, Forbes ranks MIT, Stanford, and Cal-Berkeley ahead of Cal Tech, with Georgia Tech next in the top 5.
US News has the same top 4, in that order, with Carnegie-Mellon #5 and GT 7th.

You want my true thoughts? IVY league is all about the contacts you make.
I am a CPA who works for a company located in New York with plenty of IVY league grads, and their coursework and classes in Accounting where the same as mine at LSU. There is only so much you can do with certain majors.........
So you are getting laughed at, but there are multiple majors at universities that are "on par" with Ivys

Accounting isn't historically part of a liberal arts education. The Ivies were originally about liberal arts education. That is one of the biggest "on par" distinctions.
If you can take the same accounting coursework at an Ivy as you do at a big public education, the big public school is probably not doing its job.
I have a kid who got a masters in accounting, but unfortunately, they went to a liberal arts school and had to do a whole bunch of accounting catch up after they got their undergrad because their liberal arts school simply didn't offer enough accounting classes.
Accounting is a trade. To Ivy League educators, you get that when you go to a trade school (business). You learn about numbers after you get a liberal arts education.

Zero. Vandy is easily our best school but wouldn't rank with the Harvard's and Yale's. No P5 schools are with ivy leaguers and no, Not even u Stanford with the exception of computer science. All other disciplines at Stanford don't rank with ivy league.
