I suppose all highly rank privates are rich but Wake seems excessively rich. DD’s roommate drives $75k car and another hall mate picked up by private jet for break. Yikes.

Yes. They provide great aid to the neediest. The problem is there are few upper middle class kids there, few kids of families making @ $200k in big cities. They have the poor and the top 5%. It’s unbalanced. And it is the same at many private schools.
