I was about to say that it seems that the true test of success is the boys' making it through college, and not just being accepted. Wealthy private schools will accept students like these, who may not be as qualified, but won't provide them with the tools that they lacked in their early education that will allow them to actually succeed at these colleges.
Has anyone read "A Hope in the Unseen"?
That said, it's great that these young men graduated from high school. College isn't for everyone; if they join the military, acquire a trade, or even get vocational training, they can support themselves well.
