Do you have to be in the Gifted and Talented Education (G.A.T.E) to get into an Ivy League University with a scholarship? What if you have straight A's, AP classes, extra curricular activities, community service hours,etc.; but you are not in G.A.T.E. ?
DOES THAT MEAN YOU CANT GET A SCHOLORSHIP TO ANY IVY LEAGUE COLLEGE?

No. Many schools don't even have gifted an talented programs. You need to be an excellent student taking a challenging schedule. You also need to demonstrate some potential to be a leader as something - whether it's in academia, business, technology, politics doesn't matter, as long as it's something that brings positive recognition to the school. They do not give merit-based scholarships, so if you plan to get a scholarship to one of them, it will have to be based on financial need.

No, you don't have to be in GATE to be successful or to get into an Ivy.

No, just an all-rounded individual with charisma and confidence.
