[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Other than Legacy/Athlete/URM - any DMV admits at all? Looking at our school, this seems to take up 100 percent of the cases. [/quote]
Not to re-open the debate that was going on earlier, but my DC was accepted rea to Yale this year. Not legacy, white/asian, not an athlete. Goes to a relatively good public school in DC. None of the other ivy/t25 early admits there were hooked either. [/quote]

Same for us. Kid in at another Ivy early. White. My other kid was '22, and 4 of 5 admitted to their Ivy were white/Asian and I don’t think had any hooks. Neither of mine did. Public magnet school.[/quote]

Well a 4.5 and 1600 isn’t enough to get in so what made them stand out?

For the kids I know, it was ROTC and being 50% -100% URM. [/quote]

ROTC is a huge hook at schools like Yale, Princeton, and MIT.

Tough to get the four year scholarship, but once that happens, all good almost everywhere.[/quote]

It’s the only way in for kids that’s aren’t first gen or wealthy . [/quote]
