[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Probably outdated here on some of these but here’s some wild guesses:

UMiami
Tulane 
GWU
Syracuse 
Hobart and William Smith
Connecticut College
U of Vermont
Trinity College
Penn State
Hampden-Sydney
Mount Holyoke[/quote]

Tulane had an admit rate for the '25 class of 9.73%. They dropped their honors college because the caliber of student is growing by leaps and bounds. [/quote]

Tulane's SATs look really stellar, but they became SAT optional a few years ago--any word on how many student actually submit SATs there?[/quote]

This list is dead on for “schools rich families won’t be embarrassed to send their kids.  Add all SEC schools, Sewanee, UC Boulder TCU and SMU - lots of different levels of students at these schools with a rich undercurrent. [/quote]
Hmm...probably depends on the family and area of the country? And political/religious leanings? I can't see most parents of a bottom-of-the-class Sidwell or GDS kid being all too enthused about Alabama or Mississippi State or Ole Miss or Arkansas or LSU. [b]I feel like those kids are more likely to go to like...Denison.[/b] [/quote]

Denison has a 29% acceptance rate. Bottom of the class (even at Sidwell or GDS) isn't guaranteed to get in there anymore.[/quote]
