Some schools in the South that are often referred to as "Southern Ivies" include: 

• Emory University
• A private research institution with roots dating back to 1836, Emory is often named as a Southern Ivy. 
• Duke University
• Some say that Duke's education is worth the cost, largely due to its student support system. 
• Vanderbilt University
• Located in Nashville, Tennessee, Vanderbilt is a top-tier institution in the South with a notable faculty and research facilities. 
• Rice University
• Known for its strong academic program and individualized attention, Rice offers a variety of programs to choose from. 
• Tulane University
• Located in New Orleans, Louisiana, Tulane is a highly ranked school with a wide range of majors and minors. 
• University of Virginia
• Considered a Public Ivy, UVA is highly ranked and offers an education that rivals the Ivy Leagues'. 
• Georgia Institute of Technology
• Although not an Ivy League institution, Georgia Tech's admission standards are comparable to those of Harvard University and Princeton University. 
• University of Richmond
• Sometimes called a Little Ivy, the University of Richmond is known for its integrated liberal arts core and well-respected business school. 

Tulane's ranking dropped from 44th in previous years to 73rd in 2024, which may be due to the new methodology used for the rankings. The new methodology includes:

• No longer considering class size
• Weighting first-generation graduation rates at 2.5%
• Dropping the weight of financial resources per student from 10% to 8% 

Tulane has criticized the new methodology, saying that it is less relevant for most students and that it failed to accurately measure the financial success of its students and the graduation rates of first-generation students.
