[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’re underestimating the network you get from boarding school even if you don’t go to an Ivy. I went to Milton as a day student and I would 100% send my kid to a boarding school as a day student even if they ended up at BU or Tulane. My brother got his job at a hedge fund during the Great Recession in past because of a prep school connection.[/quote] Very true. A seriously outsized percentage of those 400-1200 kids at each of the top 25 or so boarding schools are very well connected. The concentration of wealth and influence is noteworthy. If, in addition to seeking an outstanding education, you would like your child to enter adulthood with friends in high places, you will do far better at Exeter or Deerfield than you will at Penn or Harvard.
