Great schools. Weird kids (with some exceptions). BU seems to be the safety of choice, which is interesting.

Though check out this page - top ten schools attended by Stuy alums - lots of SUNY and CUNY. I guess they don't get included in the IG post?

That must be missing a third page. Also missing Michigan (which is a top 10), Penn, and many others at the end of the alphabetical alphabet. But the prior poster's point still stands about the top ten.

BU has an 11% acceptance rate. It's not a safety school.

Glad you aren't a college counselor. 🤣

When all of your classmates are going to Ivy+, Williams, etc., BU is a safety - I'm pretty sure it was the worst school I saw. Partially because none of the SUNY/CUNY kids showed up. Nothing to be ashamed of - BU is a great school. Just the facts.

If you are 1550+ and top 10% of your class at Stuy, BU is most definitely a safety. As are a lot of really great schools. Perhaps some of these kids will get rejected from BU for yield management.

There are quite a few kids with those stats that get rejected by T25 schools. The safety take is pretty silly.

Fine. BU was the worst school shown, or one of the worst. Again - no shame in that - BU is "better" (I hate that term) than the vast majority of schools in America. But I think that is pretty hard to dispute.

"in theory the majority of them should be ivy bound?"

in what theory?

stuy is a meritocracy. the ivies are not. the end.


Oh come on. Cornell is like our state flagship, you can’t say Cornell is not meritocracy to its residents—plus there are the contract colleges. In theory the majority of Stuy should at least be accepted by Cornell.


Cornell is 70k and that's if you are a NY resident and attend a contract college. Otherwise it's 90k. it's nobody's state flagship


NYC parent here with hs students. Cornell is well-represented in NYC high school college matriculation lists. It is as if it was flagship.


+1

The reason why we don’t have a state flagship it’s because we already have Cornell.


the numbers going to a SUNY and CUNY vs Cornell is enormous.


Flagship means it maintains certain selectivity. There is Cal, and there are other UCs and cal state system.


We know what flagship means. A private Ivy League college doesn’t fit the description and yes - all of Cornell is private.


No, not all of Cornell is private. It has land grant schools as well.

You're calling kids weird. Your take has no credibility whatsoever. Bye.
