[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How has U Miami not been mentioned yet?

Also, for any of the state flagships, while there may be cohorts of rich kids, none of them is a "rich kid school" in the sense of many of the others being listed here. [b]Know a number of kids at CU who are on work/study, etc. There is only a very small faction that are in the "ski house" crowd and they pretty must keep to themselves.[/b]

Really? I'm from Colorado (a town that borders Boulder, actually) and that's not my experience at all. It's true that there's a large contingent of normal middle class Colorado kids, but the out of state crowd, which is about half of the student body, most certainly gives "rich AF coming to ski and/or party in Boulder" vibes. (Years ago legalized weed was a big draw too, but that's obviously less so now as more states have legalized.) And CU Boulder is pretty easy to get into, so many students are a particularly ...notable...combination of rich + not overly academic. [/quote]

Adding UVM + College of Charleston.

10% of CofC students are from top 1%. Private jets home for thanksgiving etc.  but like CU, there is real diversity there too.[/quote]
