Description: 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."
