Harvard and the other Ivies definitely accept people that have a very low chance of succeeding. Read the book called The Price of Admission: How America’s Ruling Class Buys Its Way into Elite Colleges–and Who Gets Left Outside the Gates. Basically, the book talks about kids from rich families that paid millions of dollars to be accepted. Often, these kids had criminal records, multiple DUI’s, and thefts, yet they were still accepted, albeit reluctantly.
