Some of the most sought after colleges in USA, that are also elite schools are called Ivy League schools. Why they are called Ivy League, is because this term originated from inter-college athletic rivalries and traditions of planting ivy. This term "Ivy League" was used first in 1933, which later became official. Finally becoming an official athletic conference in 1954.

Both Harvard Business School and Wharton offer elite programs to international students. Students must choose between the two based on their career goals, industry, and learning style. Students who are seeking programs in Finance and Investment Banking must go with Wharton, whereas for Entrepreneurship, Harvard is better. Harvard University is better for leadership roles in the public /private sectors, whereas Wharton is good for quantitative or data-driven roles.

Technically,  Stanford University is located on the West Coast of USA, however, all Ivy League schools are located in the Northeast of USA. Hence, this is the reason why Stanford is not a part of Ivy League. Even when a lot factors match - like low acceptance rate at Stanford, importance for extracurriculars and other coincinding parameters, Stanford is not an Ivy League.
