[quote=Anonymous]At most private schools kids that aren't considered top tier are counseled away from ivies and slacs. I have a friend who didn't really understand the culture who's been discovering this the hard way. They don't want rejections from those schools, they want acceptances--so the admissions counselors steer their students accordingly. That also might explain why some schools that used to be safeties like BU, Tufts, Hamilton, Tulane, Northeastern, Pomona, Denison... Etc. have been bumped up in the ranks. I mean, there's a lot more to it, but you have to make things look valuable for people to buy them. [/quote]
