[quote=Anonymous]I went to Harvard on a scholarship as an international student from West Africa. If you weren’t exposed to elite circles growing up, an Ivy League college can feel very lonely. The education is excellent, but beyond that, the experience can be isolating if you don’t come from a privileged background. Fitting in isn’t easy. That said, these institutions do open doors that might otherwise have remained closed, regardless of the connections you make while you’re there. I’m back home now after a short stint at the IMF. Would I send my child to an Ivy League school? Probably not. My twin brother went to UT and built more meaningful, lifelong connections than I did. I do miss Virginia though. [/quote]
