Give it a rest already.

Vanderbilt
TCU, to a certain extent but not SMU level (lots of California money coming in for all those kids who can't break through the UC system)

What is SMU like?

Universities with a heavy preponderance of students from the top 1%:

Princeton
Brown
Dartmouth
Brown
Yale
Vanderbilt
WashU
Georgetown
WashU

Anecdotally, SMU and TCU for super wealthy but academically average American students. And lots of rich international students at NYU, BU, and USC.

Almost every private top 40 plus the top slacs are filled with rich kids. Northeastern, BU, and Tulane are not filled with rich kids -- well to do maybe but not rich. Kids or normal doctors or even biglaw partners are well to do but not rich. Rich is another level. And there are tons of rich kids at all the top schools.

St. Andrews, too. Some of the richest NE boarding schools send 5-6 girls per year there.

Yale has the wealthiest old-school money.
Harvard has overinvested in FGLI.
