[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is pretty simple. The colleges with the wealthiest students are those that are selective but don't have enormous endowments to subsidize a more socio-economically diverse student body. Wealthy parents pay full freight for their children to attend for a (relatively) prestigious diploma. This was also the reality for the Ivy and ivy-like older schools that started amassing huge endowments (via aggressive fundraising from alumni) a few decades ago and then adopting DEI principles in the last decade or so. The highly selective and well-endowed universities that made this list are those that do not prioritize DEI as much. [/quote] The lack of huge endowments give them a huge disadvantage when it comes to college rankings because diversity is given heavier weight in most ranking system, including USNWR. (These schools are doing a pretty good job at it but it’s much harder for them.)[/quote]
