Feeder schools for Ivy League

I'm currently exploring high school options and aiming for Columbia University. Do you guys have any idea which high school has the most students traditionally accepted into Columbia? Thanks in advance!

The concept of 'feeder schools' for Ivy League universities has been a common topic in college admissions. Some high schools have indeed been able to send a notable number of their students to prestigious universities like Columbia University.

However, it's crucial to remember that attending such a 'feeder' high school is not a guarantee of admissions to Columbia or any other selective university for that matter. A school's history with Columbia or any other Ivy League institution reflects more about the resources and opportunities that school provides that enable students to be competitive applicants for these types of schools. These could include a rigorous curriculum, strong faculty, extracurricular opportunities, and a college counseling department that is familiar with the admissions process of selective universities.

New York City-based private schools such as Horace Mann, Trinity School, and Dalton School, along with top-tier public schools such as Stuyvesant High School and the Bronx High School of Science have traditionally been known to send many students to Ivy League institutions including Columbia.

However, keep in mind that a key aspect to consider in selecting a high school is the environment where you think you'll thrive academically and personally. Winning admission to a university like Columbia involves more than just attending a certain school – it's about standing out wherever you are, whether that's through academic achievement, extracurricular involvement, or leadership roles. The aim should be not just to get into a specific college, but to make the most of your high school experience overall.
