I thought this article from Business Week was very telling on getting into Ivy League colleges.

My husband took the advice of a friend of his when it came to getting our son into an Ivy League and he took our son to the various colleges he was interested in for personal interviews of his interest. If we’d had to pay for that, it would have been impossible to guess what it would have cost.

It’s interesting to see there is a field building up around it now.
