In response to palestra38
Since the subject took a turn towards the issue of cost of attendance, I figure I would put some IL money issues for people to review. I'll let more enlightened members discuss how these numbers fit into the discussion of recruiting.
I apologize, in advance, for the formatting errors. I tried to improve it, but this was the best I could do.
In 1/2017 the Equality of Opportunity Project accumulated data on the percentages of students from different socio-economic groups at US colleges and universities. Here is how the IL schools fared:

Top 10% 60% 48% 48% 58% 53% 58% 58% 57%
Top 20% 70% 62% 64% 69% 67% 71% 72% 69%

For 3 of the last 4 years, the NY Times has produced its College Access Index, which is suppose to show which schools are doing the most for low and middle income students. For the 2015 and 2017 surveys, it looked at schools with a 5 year graduation rate of 75% or higher. In 2015 that number was 179 school, but it dropped to 171 in 2017.
The Access Index looks at the % of first-year students that receive Pell Grants, the cost to attend for students whose families earn between $30K-$75K a year, and the percentage of those students to graduate.
