<p>Probably depends on which Ivy. I think that too many people make a mistake lumping the Ivies together. They differ a greast deal in terms of prestige and difficulty of getting into. Yale, Harvard and Princeton are the elite. Not too many people would get into one of those and go to UVA instead UNLESS selected for a Jefferson Scholarship - and then all bets are off. Cornell and Penn? I see UVA as a very tough competitor for those.</p>
