"Actually, it is a great advantage to be below certain income level, most middle class would not even attempt to apply to Ivy's - they cannot afford it since there are so little academic scholarships available there compare to state schools."

? Harvard provides very nice financial aid to families with incomes up to $160 k a year. Some other Ivies also provide marvelous need-based aid to families that many would consider to be affluent.
