Rigged against? There’s a difference between a system that is designed to keep you out vs. a system that is in the process of being redefined to not give the historical, de facto, self-selecting advantage. “White upper middle class boys” are well represented at the nation’s “elite” colleges. Still. The majority, not the minority.
That sounds more like a bad made-for-TV movie than what your real life experiences will be like. How would that work? Would you move on to campus, pull up the campus directory, filter it by “rich kids” and “legacies”, find out where the “Privileged Meetup for Mean Kids” is happening, then show up, uninvited, to confess your lack of success at gaining entry to universities where the vast majority of applicants also get rejected? Queue the bullying…?
That’s not at all how it works, fortunately.
What’s actually going to happen is that you’re going to join the legions of young adults who took a chance on super-selective admissions and it didn’t work out. You’ll attend one of the other great schools that loved you back. If you allow yourself, you’ll have a great experience. If you continue to delude yourself that you’ve somehow fallen into “discriminated against/minority status”, you’re going to find your experience to be less than fulfilling.
You clearly got into some great schools. You got into some schools that others dream of getting into, but didn’t. If that’s what you value (and that’s the impression that I get from reading your original and subsequent posts in this thread), then you’ve got a win.
