The poors can still get in if they are willing to become indebted wage slaves with a 6 figure debit for the next 20-30 years. Seems fair enough.

Just, don't expect to get in to a social connection generator for nepo babies, you get a state school with institutionalized alcoholism.

    They can't. Those schools are all scams. That's the real ugliness. Private universities charging six figures also have some of the worst placement rates and poorest post-collegate incomes.

    Right. Because the degree is a social gatekeeper first and foremost.
