It's a combination of prestige and education quality. And the fact that they can afford to be very selective, so they can keep the prestige intact by admitting the very best for the majority of the student base.

Those institutions will raise their prestige over time as the market acknowledges the education outcomes. As long as we continue to let these ivy league institutions gate-keep society, we'll be stuck in this system. Cutting out federal tax-payer money from these wildly overpriced institutions is a good first step.
