They reject 95% of applicants and produce CEOs who become the richest 1%. Their endowments are bigger than the GDP of 100 countries. But are these schools really worth the hype? This is the story of America's most powerful educational dynasty, The Ivy League: In 1636, Harvard opened its doors as the first ever Ivy. Fast forward to today with 8 schools, 281,000 students, and a combined endowment of $200 BILLION. The Ivy league has been a symbol of prestige and power – but most don’t realize… Of the 45 US presidents, 16 went to Ivy League schools. That's over 35%. And since 1980, EVERY president has had an Ivy League degree. But it's not just politics The Ivy League excels at… 112 US billionaires of the 2022 Forbes 400 list went to just 12 colleges. And most are Ivy League. Here you're not just buying a degree, you're buying into an elite network. They love to tout diversity. But legacy admissions are still a thing. So, is Ivy League education worth it? Stats say yes.
