An eye opening list ⬇️

A research study followed those students who were waitlisted and could not attend Ivy League schools like Harvard and went to public state universities instead.

Know what they found?

They found that at the age of 33, people from 9 state universities earned only 3-4% less than what people earned at Ivy Leagues.
