I went to Wash. U. in parent times and never met anyone there who seemed especially wealthy.

Is it possible that schools like USC, Princeton and Dartmouth figured out a way to game the system and lower their apparent student family wealth levels?[/quote]

WashU is currently filled with loaded student families.. It is the go-to backup school when you don't get into Ivies, Stanford, MIT, Northwestern, duke, etc for NYC area kids.....$$$$$$ flowing freely. [/quote]

This comment shows your ignorance and bias. If what you say is true, then Northwestern, Emory, Vanderbilt, Tufts and others are also for Ivy League rejects and Yale, Princeton, Brown, Dartmouth, Penn and Cornell are all for Harvard rejects. :roll: [/quote]
