With this years admission results just out it seems that the percentage of first gen students at ultra selective schools had just reached a new high. Before long 1st gen could be a quarter of admitted students at nation’s most selective schools. If you add low income and internationals you end up with a student body having less than half of its members from US middle to upper class families. People like Mark Zukerburg Jeff Bezos probably won’t make it to those elite schools if they were graduating from HS today.
