[quote=Anonymous]After reading all the comments in this thread, what exactly is the gain of attending an Ivy or a T20 college? Is it a "better" education? A "better" community? a "tradition" or a family "legacy"? Why is it worth $100K a year when the world is turning anti-elite, anti-wealth etc....? Don't all of the same arguments about why NOT to spend a lot of $ on a Big 3 instead of DCPS/MCPS/FCPS etc...apply to why NOT to spend $$$ on Ivy, T20SLAC, etc.. and instead go to community college and then UMD/VaTech/UDC, etc..? It's silly to argue your moral superiority for attending a public K-12 school and crow about Ivy admissions. [/quote]
