"Education is the most powerful weapon
which you can use to change the world."
Nelson Mandela, South African civil rights activist
In 2017, a team led by the Harvard economist Raj Chetty discovered that students coming from families who earn more than $630,000 a year, or those in the top 1%, are 77 times more likely to be accepted into an Ivy League school than students coming from families who make less than $30,000 a year. Moreover, it was found that 38 colleges in America, including five in the Ivy League, welcome more students from the top 1% of the income scale than from the bottom 60%, families that make less than $65,000 a year. Ergo, a clear link is drawn between wealth and attending top-tier schools, students from low-income backgrounds constantly receiving reminders that they are the ones who do not belong.
