Summary

Description
English: Variable-width bar chart showing "Ivy-Plus" college admission rates as a function of parents' income percentile, for students with SAT/ACT scores comparable to current students
  • Data source: Chetty, Raj; Deming, David J.; Friedman, John N. Diversifying Society’s Leaders? The Determinants and Consequences of Admission to Highly Selective Colleges 2. Opportunity Insights (July 2023). Archived from the original on July 31, 2023. Figure 3.
  • Source explains: "Figure 3 shows admissions rates for students at Ivy-Plus colleges by parental income with SAT/ACT scores comparable to current students. We estimate there are 103 extra students admitted at Ivy-Plus colleges from families earning in the top 1% (per class of 1,650 students) due to admissions preferences. This is calculated as the difference between the actual admissions rate for students from the top 1% and their admissions rate if it were equal to middle-class students (parental incomes in the 70th–80th percentile) with the same SAT/ACT scores."
