Jeff Selingo’s 'Dream Schools'

But to another poster’s point, there may be many on the west coast who need to hear it. It is interesting to me how some schools that are pretty popular on CC (like Pitt) have tiny numbers of people from our Bay Area high school applying. Even a relatively well known college like UIUC has some people here saying “what does that stand for”? For context, less than 10 a year applying to these out of a senior class of around 300, of which something like 90% go on to 4 year colleges. Some other schools have 80+ a year applying.
