Why doesn't anyone get that this is a joke? If Harvard and Yale really didn't respect each other, they wouldn't even bother with the rivalry. It's all out of fun chill
This video, a friendly jab, is part of a longstanding and famous rivalry between Yale and Harvard. It was created by Harvard students and shot on their own campus. That's why it's ironic that they're making fun of Yale's campus.
Brizzy Lopez Certainly Top 5 in the Northeast- but how about Stanford, the Claremont Colleges (Pitzer was my safety school in '78), UCB, U Chicago (my Uncle Morris Philipson was the Chair of the Press for 32 years), or- dare I mention my own alma mater... REED? :)
"What happened to the original line in this video?" XD !!!!!!!! I was SO ready to hear the original line, or find that you just edited it out, to pretended it didn't happen, and be pissed about it. But DAMN that was a good cover up.
Nahhhh see the Harvard-Yale rivalry goes back a long way, and at this point it's kind of a joke. So I'm fairly certain that this was all in good humor. Much like the one Yale did.
Typical Harvard: derivative and not that funny. OnHarvardTime, you may have been conditioned to hate the Yale admission video, but we know that deep in your souls you were really impressed by the creativity and soul of our admission video. Y'all are essentially Penn on steroids with a little more name recognition.
YEP! My granddad and his brothers (the Bibermans of Philly) all went to Penn- his sister to Brin Mawr. All of them were miserable Communists except for my Grandad!
I'm perplexed about one matter. Recent articles in The Crimson have informed us that it is more dangerous to attend Harvard than Yale. Harvard and its surrounding Cambridge streets is where you go to get mugged and robbed.
I lolled at "what year was Yale founded." At my first info session (for Columbia), the *salesmen* kindly asked us who wants to hear about history - no hands were raised. They said they'd do a "brief version" which still lasted 20 minutes, during which several walked out. I was a tour guide at my undergrad college - the only history we had to learn was year of founding, and the rest was our testimony and discussing our classes amongst each other. Case Western gave MIT rejects happiness.
Why is Harvard flaming on Yale so much lol. I realize that this video is aimed for only Harvard Students to get a good laugh or two, but if that's the case why post it to UA-cam where the whole world can see it? Harvard is bound to get some hate for this. Anyways I'm rooting for Yale!!! Kwasi Enin pls.
Yup... and now after that Halloween e-mail fiasco where a bunch of Yalies proved they couldn't act older then toddlers, he's stepped down. And I bet he wishes he never left the Yard.
0:52 It used to be "What happened to that girl who was murdered and stuffed in a wall" But that caused controversy so they changed it to "What happened to the original line in this video?" It's only funny if you get it.
COOL as all get out, Mr. Kaufman! I went to Fieldston in NYC, Class of '78- many of my old friends went to Yale (I went to Reed College)... they are some of the best people on the planet, and I still know many of them... Boolah Boolah! BTW... What's the color of Horses--t? BROWN! BROWN! LOL!
Cindy Ginger you have to watch the original Yale video they are mocking. This is like Harvard does Weird Al on Yal's admissions video. The lead was on point hilarious I watched them out of order which made watching the real one funnier.
I came out of high school with mediocre grades, but went to a small college which offered me almost complete financial aid, and now I'm a first year medical student. Remember people, after you graduate nobody really cares anymore about where you went to college.
@Krantarin no worries friend, you don't have to come to Harvard! this isn't an admissions video anyways. you see, Harvard doesn't have to put as much energy into recruiting competitive applicants. :)
Yale's promotional video is a shameful disgrace. The fact they disabled comments and the like button is an assault on free discourse, which is what Yale OUGHT to be defending come hell or high water. I never thought I'd be pretentious enough to make this call, but Harvard all the way baby!
This video was made as a joke, as are most of its kind. The rivalry is all in good fun, although some people take it further than others. The competition drives each school to be better rather than resting on their laurels, which helps to improve the quality of education, campus life, etc., so in a way the competition is actually quite beneficial. If it came down to it, though, I'm sure the two schools could work together if necessary.
If you have to dis another university to get students, then it [Harvard] isn't worth it. Harvard is overrated anyway. Also, obvious Yale has more respect when they have more than 3 times as much subscribers on their youtube channel than Harvard's.
@harvardbanana "It got changed after Yale submitted some strong complaints to Harvard over the question, "What happened to the woman who got murdered and stuffed in a wall?""
I thought this was finely done and very creative. It doesn't take an Ivy League grad to see that, but it does take an Ivy League grad to believe this is in bad taste. Oh, the irony.
Bush's bachelor's degree is from Yale. He also has an MBA from Harvard Business School. Mitt Romney has a JD from Harvard Law School as well as an MBA from Harvard Business School. Obama got his JD from Harvard Law School. Bush 1 has a bachelor's degree from Yale. The Clintons got their JDs from Yale Law School. For the past 20 years, every American President has either attended Harvard or Yale (or both).
Instead of doing it all at Harvard, why did your crew "borrow" Yale's campus to do all this? How far is New Haven from Cambridge? Just an hour and a half, tops?
Dude, if the guy who asked the year Yale was founded, was blind (whose answer was RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM), then WHY DIDN'T HE WALK OUT WITH A GUIDESTICK?
@aznpridehomey !!! It's over $50k a year to go there! I go to Kansas State University, and you can research our tuition. We have it easy. How do you manage to ever pay off your attendance price???
It's a joke. Relax people. If Harvard and Yale students didn't respect each other, they wouldn't care enough to joke around. It's a rivalry, not a freaking war, and it's all made in good fun.
@mcskep you're mistaken. the creators of this video obviously knew that yale/new haven is actually far from being THAT dangerous. the humor lies in the exaggeration.
Why doesn't anyone get that this is a joke? If Harvard and Yale really didn't respect each other, they wouldn't even bother with the rivalry. It's all out of fun chill
Totally! (mom of Yalie here).
"Ooh!"
"Who are you?"
Loved it.
And this is why Harvard isn't known for their drama department
Harvard has a drama department?! 0_o
doublemintyicy Yeah, Harvard's just going to have to settle for their law school, their business school, their medical school...
+doublemintyicy I know, it's really not like people such as you know, Academy Award winner Matt Damon went there. Shit department I guess
what about matt damon?
Matt Damon wasn't an acting major... Harvard doesn't have a acting major (until recently 2015)
The salt in this comment section is hilarious.
at least Yale has a mascot
This made me laugh so hard. I always joke about getting a stuffed John Harvard, if I ever went there.
Geronimo’s skull? Ivy League creeps
This video, a friendly jab, is part of a longstanding and famous rivalry between Yale and Harvard. It was created by Harvard students and shot on their own campus. That's why it's ironic that they're making fun of Yale's campus.
You can't spell "safety school" without Yale.
Actually, you can't spell "safety school" without BROWN! LOL!
***** I went to the sports summer camp they held in their athletic center. Wound up getting my head split open there.
blackjac5000
AHAHA! I had a lot of friends who went to "Horsesh-t U"!
If yale is a safety school then you must be shitting bricks since yale IS THE BEST!
Brizzy Lopez Certainly Top 5 in the Northeast- but how about Stanford, the Claremont Colleges (Pitzer was my safety school in '78), UCB, U Chicago (my Uncle Morris Philipson was the Chair of the Press for 32 years), or- dare I mention my own alma mater... REED? :)

Daniel Zhang They made a joke about a real campus murder that happened there.
maybewise As a survivor of Campus violence better to have left mocking a crime especially when your own college has a legacy of cover ups.
This parody was so on point. Truly outstanding. Job well done, Harvard.
literally would be so blessed to get into either of these colleges :(((((
Me too ,:(((
@@Nanami_X_Higurama how'd it go?
I wanted to go to Harvard but Yale seemed a little better. Now you guys just pointed me in the right direction. I'm applying to Yale.
The dance at the end kills me EVERY TIME.
tell me why i watched this whole video thinking it was it was pro yale lmaooo wtf
lol I like Yale better than Harvard but yeah, y'all got me. This is hilarious.
Got rejected from Harvard and waitlisted at Yale today lol
4:10 I believe that's Nick Christakis back when he was a House Master at Harvard.
Now he's at Yale 😂😂
Because Yale chose me.
Well, apparently the rivalry between Yale and Harvard is pretty intense and borderline uncivil!
The video 《That's.Why.I.Chose.Yale》is now a part of our english book（in China） now，and i think i will show this one to my classmates…
i love how this video implies that you as a potential student can choose to go to harvard or yale. lets be clear, its them choosing you.
Here I am rooting for Columbia,
fuck me, right?
Columbia is the best
This video is more like "Why you shouldn't choose Harvard"
Bilgesu Odabaş How is it even remotely like that?
Nahhhh see the Harvard-Yale rivalry goes back a long way, and at this point it's kind of a joke. So I'm fairly certain that this was all in good humor. Much like the one Yale did.
Salty Yalie detected
@@theatrebeaver8114 No she isn't. She is Yves Rocher's Campaign Manager tho. Source: I was an ex boyfriend jk from a five second google search
Princeton, Yale, or Harvard? I choose Yale
DEFINITELY! Those Puritans in Cambridge are insufferable... as as for PRIGSTON... BEURK! :)
I choose Princeton... just saying
***** :) How about Dartmouth? What are we up here in NH, chopped liver? :)
I CHOOSE YALE TOO
The Silent Chicken how about ur prob not gonna get in any of them
To be honest when I was touring colleges, people tried scamming me on the streets around Harvard but not Yale
new haven is honestly not that bad
If I had a dime for every offended Yalie in the comments I'd be able to pay my Harvard tuition
Typical Harvard: derivative and not that funny. OnHarvardTime, you may have been conditioned to hate the Yale admission video, but we know that deep in your souls you were really impressed by the creativity and soul of our admission video.

someone didnt get into either
YEP! My granddad and his brothers (the Bibermans of Philly) all went to Penn- his sister to Brin Mawr. All of them were miserable Communists except for my Grandad!
I wouldn't be calling other people douchey if I were a Harvard man ;)
I went to Yale, it really helped me get a yob
I'm perplexed about one matter. Recent articles in The Crimson have informed us that it is more dangerous to attend Harvard than Yale. Harvard and its surrounding Cambridge streets is where you go to get mugged and robbed.
"Coed... Unfortunately *wink*" Lmfao
Hahaha!!!! The things you stumble upon at 3 in the morning while surfing UA-cam! This was a freakin' riot! 🤣

Lol Yale does the exact same thing back to Harvard (HarvardStillSucks), it's just satire.
Yeah but Yale is actually good at making fun of Harvard.
But of coarse Harvard will be attacked for trying to make fun of the best school .
this made me want to go to yale more
How should i call Harvard now... Envy League, perhaps?
Isn't that Nicholas Christakis at 4:10? He just moved his lab to Yale ;-)
Yup... and now after that Halloween e-mail fiasco where a bunch of Yalies proved they couldn't act older then toddlers, he's stepped down. And I bet he wishes he never left the Yard.
0:52 It used to be "What happened to that girl who was murdered and stuffed in a wall"
But that caused controversy so they changed it to "What happened to the original line in this video?"
It's only funny if you get it.
Omfggg holy shit
Also goddamn 8 years since you commented this
Did anyone else notice that "Frux et Feritas" means "Honest Men and Savagery?"
You made Yale look TOO good! xo from Tromaville! Congratz from Toxie CODGER from Yale 68
COOL as all get out, Mr. Kaufman! I went to Fieldston in NYC, Class of '78- many of my old friends went to Yale (I went to Reed College)... they are some of the best people on the planet, and I still know many of them... Boolah Boolah!
BTW... What's the color of Horses--t? BROWN! BROWN! LOL!
"From hookers to hobos we've got them all" LOL!!! This was great!!!
Am I the only one who noticed the banner that said the year Yale was founded when the guy asked when it was founded?
lmao was thinking about going to harvard but it looks like my sense of humor is not nerdy enogh to get in
Why did that first dude asked when Yale was founded? It's right there on the thing can't he read??
thats the joke...
Cindy Ginger you have to watch the original Yale video they are mocking. This is like Harvard does Weird Al on Yal's admissions video. The lead was on point hilarious I watched them out of order which made watching the real one funnier.
Is it true that Harvard made this?? So called Harvard gentlemen??? Though funny, bit disappointed actually.
Andrea Lin Yale and Harvard’s rivalry dates back to the beginning of time, really. Now it’s just a joke.
GENIUS!!!!!!! Harvard has always been my dream school, i didn't need this vid to convince me:)
This is honestly my favorite video.
watch the yale channel. These guy are fucking funny. HAHA
+Archaic Man whats the name of the channel?
I can't stop laughing XD
I came out of high school with mediocre grades, but went to a small college which offered me almost complete financial aid, and now I'm a first year medical student.
Remember people, after you graduate nobody really cares anymore about where you went to college.
Did anyone else notice the Crimson Education guy in the blue t-shirt?
This is why my brother chose community college.
It's actually more difficult to get in to Yale...
@Krantarin
no worries friend, you don't have to come to Harvard! this isn't an admissions video anyways. you see, Harvard doesn't have to put as much energy into recruiting competitive applicants. :)
I'm going to be applying to Yale anyway.....but this video was just hilarious
what did she mean when she said "What happened to the original line in this video"? at 00:52
both are good universities
This rivalry is hilarious.
Yale's promotional video is a shameful disgrace. The fact they disabled comments and the like button is an assault on free discourse, which is what Yale OUGHT to be defending come hell or high water. I never thought I'd be pretentious enough to make this call, but Harvard all the way baby!
I have to return some video tapes.
0:53. What did she say? "What happened to the original...(something)... in this video?"
This video was made as a joke, as are most of its kind. The rivalry is all in good fun, although some people take it further than others. The competition drives each school to be better rather than resting on their laurels, which helps to improve the quality of education, campus life, etc., so in a way the competition is actually quite beneficial.

1:05 reeling from nausea hahahaha
so genius
If you have to dis another university to get students, then it [Harvard] isn't worth it. Harvard is overrated anyway.
Also, obvious Yale has more respect when they have more than 3 times as much subscribers on their youtube channel than Harvard's.
Melody MelloLily Last time I checked Harvard had 236,408 subscribers on their UA-cam channel while Yale has 60,286
Alex Hem Then it has changed since I've made this comment.
700 people are going/went to Yale
this video was officially posted a year ago ;)
@harvardbanana

If I were part of the people asking the guy question. I'd ask them about their secret society
Guys...
It is a long standing tradition, Harvard's competitiveness with Yale...
I DIDN'T THINK YOU GOT TO CHOOSE THEM THEY WERE ALLOWED TO CHOOSE YOU
This just makes me want to go to Yale.
Dude, if the guy who asked the year Yale was founded, was blind (whose answer was RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM), then WHY DIDN'T HE WALK OUT WITH A GUIDESTICK?
awww... I was hoping when the mugger showed up the guys would have said, "Oh hey professor." then the mugger says, "I'll see you in class."
Haha this is hilarious. Glad to see such a sense of humor
Actually, Bush went to Harvard business school as well. And Clinton went to law school at Yale.
@aznpridehomey !!! It's over $50k a year to go there! I go to Kansas State University, and you can research our tuition. We have it easy. How do you manage to ever pay off your attendance price???
Guys chill out it's just a joke. I like Yale more than Harvard but I still laughed way hard at this.
lmao that moment when you want to go to Yale, but these OnHarvardTime videos makes you think otherwise.
So true
Thanks everyone
What does Yale have that Harvard doesn't?
Light
this is from the lyrics. and no i didnt even apply for harvard
3:08 kills me every time
This is hilarious, especially because the video looks JUST LIKE HARVARD! Oh wait...
When you realized that the channel has the word "Harvard" in it
Harvard and Yale are just safety schools for Princeton.
+Brian Fang What is a...Princeton?
...what is princeton again?
Yeah, he was a part of that whole Yale thing.
It's a joke. Relax people. If Harvard and Yale students didn't respect each other, they wouldn't care enough to joke around. It's a rivalry, not a freaking war, and it's all made in good fun.
3:22 Martin Shkreli?
Have to ask. Is that the Yale or Harvard campus where they filmed?
Harvard campus
Isn't there a secret society at Yale??
I came here for the New Haven shoutouts.
if its full of undergrads then why is Yale one of the top schools in the usa?
what do you they say about the sincerest kind of flattery?
"That's not a bulldog that's my girlfriend"
Me: How did you end up in that position😳
@mcskep you're mistaken. the creators of this video obviously knew that yale/new haven is actually far from being THAT dangerous. the humor lies in the exaggeration.
@EgaoNoGenki did --> didn't*. I have a feeling that someone from OHT hacked the YT comments subserver to change my didn't to did.
Don't Harvard and Yale have a really long historic rivalry? lol i thought it was funny..
