Many kids who apply to Penn also apply to Harvard
Many kids who apply to Northwestern also apply to Stanford
Many kids who apply to Duke and Wake Forest also apply to Stanford (and all else equal, if they get in to Stanford and can swing going to California, they’re going to Stanford)
“Better”…everything…should cost more than inferior products. As a parent who sent two kids to school I understand the importance of fit. I also understand the value of $600,000.
Over the past few decades, WF has increased its costs at a higher rate than other institutions. It is no longer need blind in admissions, as it once was, and as other institutions still are. How does its current reputation compare to that of, say, 15 years ago? USNWR rankings have been stagnant between 25-30 for at least that long.
