Let's put  it this way:

1. First, HYP all say they are need-blind and Cornell may also says so.  I believe Columbia and Penn all say so at their admission website;

2. Second, I wouldn't believe they are really 100% implement it is another question.  Een for Harvard, I can find some evidence that it sometimes still favors richer kids more.  If the kid is really outstanding, I believe Harvard will take him/her in a heart beat.  Same is true for Y and P.  It's well-known that HYP have very similar FA.  They ARE in the same boat.  The one that is not is Cornell;

3. Another way to look at it: Just look at the sizes of their endowment.  Cornell is nowhere to HYP's.  Other schools just can not match HYP's, even MIT feels the pressure;

4. Heard of upper, middle and lower ivies?  I don't want to bring this up.
