Look at Arlington County publics. Arlington Magazine. Out of 4 high schools - 2,000 seniors only 0-2 total students are admitted to one of the Ivies, Duke, etc any give year.  [/quote]

I can’t believe this actually needs to be said, but…

Arlington Magazine doesn’t report ALL admissions (or matriculations).

It’s self-reported data.

This. I don’t understand others not understanding this. [/quote]

Do you really think there are all of these Ivy acceptances that didn’t get reported?[/quote]

Bless her heart [/quote]

This. People turn down ivies for full rides elsewhere or better programs for their major (cmu for cs over an ivy).[/quote]

Yes it’s why nobody from APS went to Princeton last year :).  Which has the best need based blind aid in the US [/quote]

Need based…yes…but donut hole families don’t qualify for that…but they do at top 20s that offer free rides. You are making things up. I know families who have turned ivies down for free rides elsewhere. Smart[/quote]

Yes, this isn't uncommon. People begin to ralize when the are really at the decision date that starting life with mounting debt from a brand name school isn't worth it compared to no debt from a great shool with fanstastic job placement records. This is when people realize that there really are hunderds of great colleges in this country, and you don't have to go broke.[/quote]
