[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know there are strivers from all over the world at the Ivys, but I heard the largest, most social bunches are NE, NYC, California private school kids that sort of know each other going in, making it a challenge for unconnected random kids. My colleague's daughter went to Brown because she wanted to start fresh, but then transferred to UVA because she struggled to make good bonds. In retrospect she preferred knowing a lot of people on campus. Wondering if that's a common complaint.[/quote] I don't think it's a common complaint. If you look at the stats for entering freshmen at the Ivies, a very high percentage graduate and do so in four years. It might be a bit more of an issue at Brown than at other Ivies, given its reputation for having an especially well-heeled student body. [/quote]
