People who go to Ivy League schools typically have wealthier parents and/or families who can fund their education. Subsequently this can likely carry over to their receiving support while they start a new company, not to mention the connections gained from attending such prestigious schools.

Granted that this does not apply to every case and there are true bootstrapping stories out there, but the fact of the matter is that wealth generates wealth and capitalism is the trademark of the startup industry. It has very little to do with the actual education in the end.
