[quote=Anonymous]Legacy and donorship still matters. It’s not something I’d rely on (unless there’s a building with my family name on it), but it absolutely is part of the puzzle. If you go to a private where everyone looks the same and applies to the same cluster of schools, kids with the legacies and money and connections will fair better time and time again than those without those resources and connections. Send your kid to private for the community, academic preparedness, overall experience, etc—not to guarantee placement at an Ivy (or similar). [/quote]
