[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is the Heights school an ivy feeder? [/quote] None of these Catholic schools are Ivy “feeders”. They usually send a few kids to Ivy League schools and many of them are recruited athletes. Catholic high schools have an advantage at Catholic colleges. They have established relationships with these schools and long histories. It shouldn’t surprise anyone that Jesuit colleges like Georgetown and BC view the applications of students from Jesuit high schools favorably. And Catholic families are connected to Catholic universities and will frequently choose them over Ivies because of this relationship/ tradition.[/quote] This. My son chose ND over an ivy.[/quote] I think this type of decision will take place more and more frequently as the reputation of the Ivies for "wokeness" and intolerance for other views spreads. Besides, the whole Ivy League admission system is under intensifying attack. They aren't going to be able to use Race soon. And then legacy will fall and maybe even athletic prowless.[/quote]
