[quote=Anonymous]Legacy and donor advantage skews college stats in all TT/2T schools. I remember reading in a blog from one of premium college consultants that the legacy status on its own (without major donations) increases Ivy admission chances by a factor 4 (i.e. 400%). It is an opinion/intuition, not science but it sounds plausible. It is also true that some (many?) TT schools encourage bright unconnected students to maximize their chances and play it safe by - say - ED’ing University of Chicago or less popular Ivys instead of going for HYP. [/quote]
