[quote=Anonymous]I think these schools can be an absolute game changer for first gen kids and I would put that beyond even children of immigrants or first kids who went to college in their family. Even just game changer for genuinely working class American kids whose parents might have gone to college but are still just mostly getting by. It can launch a kid into another league of possibilities. For kids already in that league by virtue of the family and wealth level they were born into, I don't think it's that big of a deal. These places are all about connections and relationships and the web of those connections and relationships and the benefits it provides. So either you have it already through your family of origin or you get into one of these places.[/quote]
