Georgia Tech of the north

Phrase used to refer to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, or MIT. It is one of the country's top engineering and research universities, behind Georgia Tech. The prestige and technological emphasis of MIT leads many in its body to refer to it as the "Georgia Tech or the North", a reference to the Georgia Institute of Technology, another world recognized university in the southern United States.

MIT is consistently ranked in U.S. News & World Report's top ten public universities in the United States.

I got accepted into the Aerospace Engineering program at MIT, the Georgia Tech of the north.
