Harvard, Princeton, Yale and Stanford will give you some financial aid even if your parents are making around 150K/year. Other Ivies are not that generous. Duke has several full-ride scholarships that are maybe harder to get than the HYPS admittance, but it wouldn’t hurt to apply. I don’t know about other schools on your list, but I would add Rice University, it also has a very selective merit scholarship that would cut its cost to about 50%, making it more affordable than many IS public schools.

But those are financial reaches. And you need to have a financial safety on your list, so I suggest looking at the links that others posted. There are a lot of valuable information there.
