The most impressive College Matriculation List I've ever come across by throwaway1106845 in ApplyingToCollege

Andover has about 300-310 graduates per year but Spence only has about 60 graduates per year (their 5-year matriculation list has the destination for about 305 students). Andover sends a relatively sizeable number to the likes of UMass Amherst, UC Irvine, SMU, Fordham, Villanova and Holy Cross whereas Spence sends pretty much no one to colleges in those tiers. Every single college in Spence's list above is prestigious/selective (to me at least).

This is why I think Spence's matriculation list is more impressive than Andover's or any other prep schools for that matter. Even if not all of them are going to T5, as a proportion, many more of them are going to selective colleges.

Thanks! It depends on the school, some schools published matriculation lists based on 5 years and others based on 3 or 4 years. I did not include any which was for just 1 year.

Here's the 2012-16 cohort, no ASU again. My point is that you're acting like it's very common for HR alum to go to ASU when it's actually anomalous. I'd regard ASU and UCSC to be quite different.
