Most undergraduate programs either teach from the same textbooks or there’s not much difference regardless of university/college. For instance, an accumulation point in mathematics is an accumulation point regardless. Hyperbolic geometry uses the same theorems whether at MIT, CALTEC or Texas A&M. Most bridges you drive over are not built by Ivy League grads and for that you should be eternally thankful.
