What on earth is wrong with you people referring to 18 year old humans as “rejects?” They’re people. You all need to get lives.

And the people listing Notre Dame, WashU, OOS Michigan, Emory and similar as some kind of back-up for those rejected from Columbia and Brown are wildly out of touch with the reality of college admissions today.

Depends on the region of the country and the high schools I suppose. There are the rare unhooked kids who get into multiple ivy/T10 in RD(one this year from the top public, one last yr from the top private) and there are about a dozen from our area each of the last 3 years who applied but did not get into any ivy/T10 but are going to WashU, Amherst, ND, Vanderbilt, OOS unc-ch, Ucla, Emory, Berkeley and more. Others end up instate UVA as Echols or Rodman scholars. It happens all the time.

My unhooked kid got into two Ivies and 2 T10s RD. You don’t know about this because people only list the school they are attending - not all of their acceptances. I guarantee there are many more in this area that did too. Not at the “top” private either.

Huh? How is a school a "Harvard reject" if the kid had no interest in Harvard?
But, I agree that the op's premise is ridiculous.

Yep, that was precisely the point. OP has her head so far up her a$$ that she can’t comprehend why not everyone wants to go to an Ivy

My kid applied to two ivies on a whim. As an Ivy reject, he's at UMD in their arguably better CS program.

At our FCPS high school, Ivy rejects are going to UVA.

Same with us - Vienna FCPS - and most accept it but were far from thrilled.

Tufts is not T30, didn't even try to sneak them in. You listed them first.
