With Top Colleges Getting Harder....What is elite?

<p>With top colleges getting harder to get into, what Top __ do you guys consider to be a top elite college list?</p>

<p>Example: Top 10, Top 25, Top 50, etc.</p>

<p>I think Top 25 are elite... with Top 50 being another tier.. but in the coming years this may change as admissions becomes more of a crapshoot and perhaps the Top 30 will become elite.</p>

<p>Also don't forget to throw in the elite liberal arts colleges. How many of those would you consider to be elite?</p>
