<p>I am very interested in applying to Yale. However, I am not fully persuaded that one needs to go to Yale to become something great in the world. My question is then, what was your logic for going to Yale?</p>
<p>Your first assumption is correct. No one needs to go to yale to become something great in the world. Why do you think people who actually matriculate think any different? You’re a curious one.</p>
<p>Why Yale? Look at their website and see if it meets your needs.</p>

<p>And for families that need financial aid, Yale (as well as Harvard and Princeton) offer generous financial aid that often makes attending the college less expensive than attending a state university.</p>
<p>Depending on your specific goals, attending Yale may make it easier to become something great in the world, because it offers some excellent opportunities.</p>
