Breaking into IB from one of the toxic schools

Have seen numerous posts shaming about Indiana, Rutgers , UCLA. Where placement rates are abysmal for students not in a specialized “boot camp” or program. Have heard that alumni at these places only go to bat for certain people within fraternities and organizations which leads to the overall university having terrible placements despite their large student pops. As someone about to start recruiting from one of these schools, can anyone provide recommendations given that I would have to be 1-3 kids that land from outside the specialized club
