You can have both success in school and wealth as a filter if that is what you mean, but I don't think that is very desirable outcome.
The other answer mentioned state scholarships, which are offered to gifted and poor students.
The options to go to uni are now:
- Have parents who can pay for your studies
- Be gifted/hard working enough to get a scholarship (I don't know how easy that is.)
- Be lucky to get a state scholarship for poor people
- Take massive student debt
This still doesn't look very nice in my eyes.
Of course I am heavily influenced by my own perspective. I most probably wouldn't have been able to study in the US system. My teenage self was way to inexperienced to even consider taking a massive student loan.
