If you always wanted to know the answer to the question: if you can afford to study anywhere, where would you go? I get the allure of NYU now. Also didn't know lots of rich people go to U Miami LOL. https://www.wealthx.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/University-Ultra-High-Net-Worth-Alumni-Rankings-2019.pdf US Ranking 1 Harvard University 2 Stanford University 3 University of Pennsylvania 4 Columbia University 5 New York University 6 Massachusetts Institute of Technology 7 Northwestern University 8 University of Southern California 9 University of Chicago 10 Yale University 11 University of California, Berkeley 12 Cornell University 13 The University of Texas at Austin 14 Princeton University 15 University of Notre Dame 16 University of Michigan 17 University of California, Los Angeles 18 University of Virginia 19 Boston University 20 University of Miami Outside US 1 University of Cambridge 2 University of Oxford 3 INSEAD 4 National University of Singapore 5 London School of Economics and Political Science 6 University of Toronto 7 Tsinghua University 8 McGill University 9 Peking University 10 University of Mumbai 11 Imperial College London 12 University of Delhi 13 London Business School 14 American University of Beirut 15 University of New South Wales 16 The University of Sydney 17 University College London 18 National Taiwan University 19 Monash University 20 University of Melbourne
I surprise me that the University of Virginia makes the list. A lot of Asian-Americans are living in Virginia go there, but most of the families are first-generation Americans...they are not wealthy.
I'm not surprised at all. UVa is a top choice for a lot of kids from very wealthy families in Northern Virginia.
I graduated from Falls Church High School, one of the lowest ranking high schools in Virginia. But I went to the University of Parris Island, the most elite college for poor kids.
Not surprisingly, the list strongly correlates with USNWR rankings, with some deviations. I would have expected to see all the ivies on there and would have bet that Johns Hopkins would be in the top 20.
