Is the Ivy League Worth It?

The Ivy League – those eight schools everyone is obsessed with. But is all the hype worth it?

Here’s the thing, those acceptance rates are brutal. 10% – that means only 1 out of 10 students get in! So if you’re one of the lucky ones… is it worth the tuition? (We’re talking $70-80k a year!) But Ivy League financial aid is amazing. If your family makes under $65k you can go to Harvard for free. And if you’re between $65k and $150k you only pay 10% of the total cost. (Harvard was cheaper for my brother than his biggest state school!) People say you can get the same education at most colleges and the only difference is the connections and networking. Is it fair? Maybe not. But it’s reality. (Think about it.)
