- The term became official after the formation of the NCAA Division I athletic conference in 1954. The use of the phrase is no longer limited to athletics, and now represents an educational philosophy inherent to the nation's oldest schools. Seven of the eight schools were founded during the United States colonial period; the exception is Cornell, which was founded in 1865. Ivy League institutions, therefore, account for seven of the nine Colonial Colleges chartered before the American Revolution. Ivy League schools are viewed as some of the most prestigious, and are ranked among the best universities in the United States and worldwide. All eight Ivy League institutions place within the top fifteen of the U.S. News & World Report college and university rankings, including the top four schools and six of the top ten. A member of the Ivy League has been the U.S. News number-one-ranked university in each of the past 12 years: Princeton University five times, Harvard University twice, and the two schools tied for first five times. The Ivies are all in the Northeast region of the United States. Each school receives millions of dollars in research grants and other subsidies from federal and state government. Undergraduate enrollments among the Ivy League schools range from about 4,000 to 14,000, making them larger than those of a typical private liberal arts college and smaller than a typical public state university. Overall enrollments range from approximately 6,100 in the case of Dartmouth to over 20,000 in the case of Columbia, Cornell, Harvard, and Penn. Ivy League university financial endowments range from Brown's $2.2 billion to Harvard's $32 billion, the largest financial endowment of any academic institution in the world.

The all-sports conference was founded in 1954, although the eight universities had been playing football as a loosely organized conference since 1945 and informally since the late 19th century. The Ivy League is the only remaining Division I conference that does not run a postseason tournament. Instead, the regular season champion is granted the league's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. In the event of a three-way tie for first place, the teams involved in the tie play off for the bid. The conference's membership has been unchanged since its formation, making it by far the most stable of any major college conference.

- The Ivy League is a group of eight old and well-regarded universities in the northeastern United States. Officially, the Ivy League is an athletic conference. Its members have a long history of participation in collegiate sports, and some of America's first sports rivalries were established at these eight schools. The Ivy League was officially established in 1954, although it had existed informally for decades prior. However, the name has much broader connotations. The Ivy League is associated with academic excellence, with many people in fiction and real life dreaming of gaining admission to an Ivy League school, as it is seen as a sign that one is truly the best of the best. (Admissions are highly selective, with admission rates being less than twenty percent.) On the flip side, the Ivy League is also associated with social elitism. It is often subjected to a unique form of Strawman U, one in which most of the students are snobbish, preppy, old-money WASPs who are already set for life, and are only going to college to acquire a veneer of respectability (for when they become executives and investment bankers) and to get into their fathers' "old boys" networks and secret societies. Any student who isn't a member of this elite gets spit on and bossed around by them, partly because of the aforementioned elitism, and partly because most of the people who are academically gifted enough to get into an Ivy League school (without resorting to Nepotism) are nerds who had already been encountering this for twelve years. Such a school will typically be the setting of a Slobs Versus Snobs plot. Essentially, it is the American equivalent of Oxbridge. (Of course, this hasn't been true of the Ivy schools for decades, but it makes for good drama and comedy both.) It's also worth noting that the mystique of the Ivy League holds less sway in parts of the country that aren't the northeast. While people on the East Coast dream of going to Princeton or Harvard, Californians often dream of getting into Stanford or University of California-Berkeley instead, while Southerners have their sights set on Vanderbilt or Duke. Even people in the relatively close Upper Midwest often aim for Northwestern or the University of Chicago instead. The renown of the Ivy League is such that the name "Ivy" is also used to describe other colleges with strong academic reputations. "Little Ivies" may refer to the "Little Three" of Amherst, Wesleyan and Williams, or to a set of small and selective liberal arts colleges (mostly in the NESCAC sporting conference). "Public Ivies" are public universities that are said to provide an Ivy League-quality education at an affordable price, while "Southern Ivies" are exactly what they sound like -- in fact, there was talk in The Sixties of forming a "Magnolia Conference" of elite Southern universities that wanted to maintain big-ticket sports programs without cutting corners on academics, as they felt that their rivals were doing. The eight Ivy League colleges, in the order they were founded:
* Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts: established in 1636 (oldest American university). Motto: Veritas ("Truth")
* Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut: established in 1701.Motto:האורים והתומים,Lux et veritas ("Light and truth").
* University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: established in 1740. Motto:Leges sine moribus vanae ("Laws without morals are useless").
* Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey: established in 1746. Motto:Dei sub numine viget ("Under God's power she flourishes").
* Columbia University in New York City, New York: established in 1754. Motto:In lumine Tuo videbimus lumen ("In thy light shall we see the light").
* Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island: established in 1764. Motto:In Deo Speramus ("In God we hope").
* Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire: established in 1769. Motto: Vox clamantis in deserto ("The voice of one crying in the wilderness").
* Cornell University in Ithaca, New York: established in 1865. Motto:I would found an institution where any person can find instruction in any study. Princeton, Harvard and Yale have traditionally been ranked as the top three schools in the United States for well over a century, although the precise ordering of the three varies from year to year. They are also considered among the top schools in the world, as well. See also Ivy League for Everyone.
