[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one outside of America even remotely cared about the Ivy League until US News. And the same drop in acceptance rate that the upthread PP keeps bringing up about schools like UChicago occurred across the board with the Ivies as well.[/quote] Wrong. NYTIMES 1983: BROWN OUTPACING RIVALS IN IVY LEAGUE POPULARITY For Brown this year has received the most applications of any school in the Ivy League, 13,250 for a class of 1,375, up 13 percent over last year. That is higher, the authorities at Brown proudly point out, than Harvard, Yale or Princeton, all of which had a drop in applicants this year. The drop reflected the nationwide decline in the number of college-age students and cuts in financial aid. https://www.nytimes.com/1983/03/20/us/brown-outpacing-rivals-in-ivy-league-popularity.html [/quote]
