This. Definitely not worth it if child is continuing beyond undergrad. I don’t know much about engineering - maybe it’s worth it for one of the top programs in that in order to work straight out of college? But I worked in T10 law school admissions for years and it made no difference in the application whether the applicant went to Princeton or UVA or VA Tech. [/quote]

Yale law school used to post their undergraduate feeder institutions and like 70% came from just the top 10 schools when they last published in 2020.

The rest of the school was just one kid from like 200 different schools.

I can’t find any similar stats published by other top law schools, so can’t refute your statement.[/quote]

Maybe Yale has that luxury but we were on the other end of the top 10 and thanks to USNWR, our primary concerns were GPA and LSAT. If you were above our desired 75th percentiles, we didn’t care if you went to Hollywood Upstairs college. Maybe for the borderline admit/deny kids we parsed on college ranking? But not many. But state flagships were viewed equally to good privates. [/quote]
