Which high school has most students at Harvard college?

<p>Harvard-Westlake is definitely well-represented (5 to 10 for any given year), but not as big as Andover, Exeter or Boston Latin.</p>

<p>According to our school newspaper, the Phillipian, the Andover numbers for Harvard for the class of 06 are as follows:</p>

<p>Applied: 94
Accepted: 21
Waitlisted: 18
Denied: 55</p>

<p>For Yale:</p>

<p>Applied: 87
Accepted: 17
Waitlisted: 6
Denied: 64</p>

<p>You might also want to read an article in the Phillipian regarding college trends at Andover for the 05-06 school year: <a href="http://www.phillipian.net/article.php?ID=2214%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.phillipian.net/article.php?ID=2214&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>For TJHSST, I know that the class of 05 sent 3 kids to Harvard.</p>

<p>Oh yeah, and a friend of mine who attended Boston Latin before he came here, said that Harvard was created FOR Boston Latin graduates, so they have always had a good feeder relationship.</p>

<p>In terms of pure percentages however, Roxbury Latin is king. Check out the link on the 2002 Worth Magazine article on feeder schools, and also note that some Dean of Harvard is on RL's board on trustees.</p>

<p>The fact that Harvard was created for Boston Latin School is still very much debated, but regardless, BLS is most definitely a feeder school to Harvard.</p>

<p>Hopkins School, founded 1660 in Connecticut, is one of the best private day schools in the country. It sends a good number of students on to Harvard and Yale. </p>

<p>Most of the best private schools (Taft, Hopkins, Miss Porter's, Fairfield Country Day, Hotchkiss, Canterbury, Westminster, Pomfret, Loomis Chaffee, Kent, Choate, Groton and others) are in Connecticut, for obvious reasons.</p>

<p>There are practically no Hopkins grads at Harvard currently.</p>

<p>Groton is not in Connecticut.</p>

<p>Well it is .... but the Connecticut Groton has submarines, not preppies!</p>

<p>... and the Hopkins School sent ZERO kids to Harvard last year.</p>

<p>Relative to its size, it does pretty well, even if there were none last year.</p>

<p>I've got a few friends at Hop, and one of them said Harvard doesn't much like their school. Of course, they say this relative to Yale, which loves them (though this year, apparently, not as much). Much of this special relationship with Yale, I think, results from Yale profs often sending their kids to Hopkins (conveniently located nearby in one of the posh areas of New Haven).</p>

<p>Hopkins is an undeniably great school, but I'm not sure if it's reputation for placement among HYP extends much beyond Yale.</p>

<p>Best,
DMW</p>

<p>If there is any sub-group with a higher admit rate than legacies at Yale (or at Harvard or anywhere else) it is the "fac-brats"!</p>

<p>Also Milton Academy (Milton, MA) sends at least 10 kids every year.</p>

<p>Years: 2000-2004 </p>

<p>Hunter College High School (NYC) has about a dozen admits a year with about a quarter the number of students as Stuyvesant, whose admitted numbers seems to have dropped greatly. </p>

<p>Also, compared to Milton, Hunter and Stuy have very attractive tuition: $ 0</p>

<p>yes, i must agree about hopkins school sending good numbers to yale and harvard but particularly yale, as i attended that school for 7th and 8th grade (the j-school). a huge percentage of those students go to yale because so many yale officials send their children to hopkins, and also because its right next door, so they have a lot of old relationships between them. oh, and to comment on what the other kid said, there are like, no posh areas in new haven. new haven is kind of run-down. most students at hopkins live in woodbridge, a really nice woodsy area near new haven, but not in it.
most of the time, they send around 2 or three each year to harvard and like a bazillion to yale, but one year i think they had a lot that went to harvard.</p>

<p>also, stuyvesant has large numbers attending harvard each year (see <a href="http://www.stuycom.net%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.stuycom.net&lt;/a> then go to the senioritis page) my cousin attends stuy and plans to apply to harvard. my school, brooklyn technical high school is more popular with MIT, Cornell, and Columbia, but does send some students to Harvard each year</p>

<p>the third top specialized high school, Bronx Science, is also very popular with Harvard</p>

<p>Stuy:</p>

<p>13 Harvard, 11 Princeton, 2 Yale.</p>

<p>I think the President of Princeton visited the school this year. Hargadon always tended to ignore it.</p>

<p>at stuy this year there were actually 15 accepted to Harvard and 7 to Yale (not everyone has updated their status on the senioritis site).</p>

<p>what about townsend harris? does anyone know their stats? they always try to act like they're so smart, so do they send a good number of people to harvard?</p>

<p>How come Bronx Sci is #3? Whos #2? And Townsend.. probably more popular with LACs.</p>

<h1>1 percentage admits/class size is Hunter, which is probably 2nd overall in NYC in terms of total H admits, just behind Stuy</h1>

<p>The Worth magazine ranked Hunter #1 public HYP feeder a few years ago. The rank was #26 or 27 with all private schools ahead of it.</p>
