[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The most interesting piece is the other statement that attending an ivy plus schools over a public flagship confers significant advantages to the student. [/quote] Is that really what it says? https://opportunityinsights.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/CollegeAdmissions_Paper.pdf Because what I’m reading is that kids who choose the more prestigious school are also more likely to work at prestigious firms or attend prestigious graduate schools. Maybe what they’re seeing is that kids who are highly motivated to seek maximum prestige at age 18 continue to chase that brass ring. Also worth noting that they saw reduced effects for kids with strong home state schools: “The causal effects of admission to an Ivy-Plus college are much larger for students with weaker fallback options – e.g., whose colleges in their home state channel fewer students to the top 1% after college.” (P.3).
