Malia Obama to attend Harvard University in 2017.

would have liked to see her choose an HBCU

Not debating that. I'm just curious if her scores were Harvard good or not. Not like they needed to be for her. No school on the planet would turn down the President's daughter.

ut austin is a fine school, but jenna bush went there for a reason and barbara (the one viewed as smarter) went to yale.

both her parents are alums, it's always easier for the children of alums to get into a university. in that way she's no different than the children of wealthy white people.

It's crazy that the top schools are the ones who practice legacy admission policies the most. We have a shadowy aristocracy in this country whether people realize it or not.

She's the daughter of a president, a double legacy, and an underrepresented minority.

Even without good grades and test scores (which she may also have), Malia Obama is basically an ivy league's wet dream.
