I get your point, but Ivies (and other rich private schools) offer dramatically better financial aid to "middle class" students than most state schools do. E.g. most students who qualify for aid would take on less debt to attend Stanford or an Ivy than to attend, say, UC Berkeley. Or pick some other state school, since Cal has had its share of protests.

Indeed, if they’re going to pay to build your future network and luck, take it.

If you can get into an Ivy, you can probably get at least a full tuition scholarship for most in state universities.

  That's not true at all. Most state schools don't have that kind of money to hand out, and even if they did, tuition is less than half of the total annual cost.
