[quote=Anonymous]For T25 today: First generation Pell grant Recruited athlete Famous/Very wealthy parents - i.e. Harvard's Z list Children of faculty ROTC Certain feeder high schools - i.e. Collegiate, Horace Mann, Harvard-Westlake Geographical diversity - i.e. Alaska, Wyoming I think that's about it for T25. Also, typically at T25 schools 15-20 percent of seats are reserved for international students. Otherwise, almost every admit is going to be an accomplished student with leadership positions - so that's not unique or anything special. Legacy these days is mostly helpful in tie-breaker situations. Athlete is probably the most useful - Stanford football, Harvard hockey, Vanderbilt baseball and so on. It's unclear how the longtime URM hook is going to play out in the foreseeable future. There was huge variation this year among the T25 schools.[/quote]
