I’d add “most likely to become famous for a good reason.”

Most likely to graduate is interesting. Almost everyone I know who didn’t graduate, it was due to finances. Purely academic reasons, at least anecdotally, seem relatively uncommon now.

That's probably true for the Ivy's since they get the cream of the crop.

The community colleges near me have a 25% 6 year graduation rate. I guarantee you that's not all due to finances.
