[quote=Anonymous]As an Ivy grad who was an Ivy legacy … if you are privileged- MONEY is the key factor. First money to go to a fancy private - be it a boarding school or expensive place like NCS or STA. And money that buys your kid privileges like sports training or going to Habitat for Humanity spring break trips that demonstrates their charity or to go so space camp. That’s balancing the diverse and inclusive rest of the student body admits. It’s ridiculous people here knocking down other elite schools as kids being on suicide watches etc. It’s not like the big 3 or 5 or 10 aren’t the same pressures on some kids. I’ve never given a cent to my alma mater - but my kid has a leg up. And if you’re spending a ton on a top private school - your kid has a leg up. So then it’s just spending more $ on space camps and rolling the dice. [/quote]
