lets talk about the 98% that go to the Fairfields, Mercys and the SUNY's That's way more realistic for almost everyone on here


It's more like 80%-90%, but I think your general point stands.


Undergraduate enrollment at the Ivies is less than 100k combined, Harvard's acceptance rate is 5.9%, I think the OP is correct.


I mean more that you have to have an SAT of at least ~1300ish (around the 85th percentile) in order to be recruited to the Ivies in a sport like lacrosse. Harvard's overall acceptance rate has zero bearing on recruited athletes.
