Where do billionaires go to university?

BBC News - Where do billionaires go to university?
"A quarter have postgraduate degrees and more than one in 10 has a doctorate. The University of Pennsylvania has produced more than any other institution, followed by Harvard, Yale, the University of Southern California, Princeton, Cornell and Stanford. More than a quarter of the billionaires who attended US universities to take undergraduate degrees were from other countries.

The only UK university in this wealth list is the London School of Economics, in 10th place, with no place for Oxford or Cambridge. The rise of Russia's wealthy is reflected in the 11th place for Lomonosov Moscow State University."

There are two other non-USA schools on the list: 9. University of Mumbai; 20. ETH Zurich.
