<p>The Ivy schools have roughly 10% foreigners in every class. You are basically competing against all the international applicants for those 100-150 spots depending on the school. I am not sure if there is any advantage in being european because I suppose the schools would want to have as many countries/continents represented in their class as possible. You should check the stats of a recent class (2014) on every school’s website. They usually publish at least the various countries represented if not the number of admits per country.</p>
