calmom - you are possibly right about HYP - but since you refer to the US News list - WashU is tied with Cornell for 12th which is higher than Brown at 15. I know of quite a few kids who did turn down HYP for WashU, because they felt it was a better fit for them. After visiting, my kids had no interest in the Ivys - did not feel it was for them. So I can absolutely understand choosing Rhodes over Yale.
