What is the most famous and prestigious university combination possible?

Globally, if someone wanted the most elite possible combination of universities on their resume in terms of fame, prestige, aura, and overall influence, what do you think the strongest pairing (or trio, etc.) would be?

For example, would having just Harvard + Oxford be more/less prestigious than having Harvard + Oxford + Cambridge?

Dude, all you post is Oxford vs Cambridge vs XYZ prestige rankings - you’ve got your answer and there’s more to life than uni, touch grass

 

Elite Aura comes from elite collegiate/olympic/pro athletics or elite military special operations in combination with elite institutions that always welcome those individuals.

No one cares about undergraduate finance clubs in the long run pal

 

Assumenda porro animi ut quos. Tempora distinctio eos nam quae consequuntur consequatur. Nostrum asperiores eos non ea debitis harum ut. Qui qui ut hic. Sed eligendi amet molestiae sequi molestiae sed voluptatibus.

Facilis repellat aut soluta saepe non. Explicabo dolores hic debitis. Omnis tempora ducimus aut et omnis in reprehenderit.
