If this list is correct, then 9 of the top 10 are NYC area private schools.

The Top 10 boarding schools for Ivy League matriculation (based on the list above) are:

1) St. Paul's School Concord, New Hampshire 24% (100% boarding school--50/50 male/female)
2) Phillips Academy at Andover (Massachusetts) 22%
3) Lawrenceville School (New Jersey) 22%
4) St. Albans Wash DC 22%
5) Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire 215

6) Deerfield Academy in Massachusetts 21%
7) Hotchkiss School  (Connecticut) 21%
8) Groton School in Massachusetts 21%
9) Milton Academy in Massachusetts 20%
10) Choate Rosemary Hall in Conecticut 19%

Not certain, but I believe that St. Paul's School in New Hampshire is the only school on this list of 10 boarding schools which does not enroll day students. SPS offers grades 9 through 12 (No PG year) and has about 540 students total.

The Groton School offers grades 8 through 12 and has the second largest percentage of boarding students.

Andover (Phillips Academy) has about 75% boarding / 25% day student mix. Over 1,000 students total including PGs.[/quote]

Development admits matter, that's what these lists show. [/quote]

Partially correct, but getting into and graduating schools like Andover, Exeter, St. Paul's, and Groton is not easy. So much pressure at Andover (Phillips Academy) to do well academically that suicide watch & prevention is a major concern. However, this issue is most pronounced at Andover to the best of my knowledge.

My point is that whether or not students from these schools have significant family donor potential, the students are very well qualified academically for intense academics in college.[/quote]
