Daniyar Nazarbayev alleges IvySuccess, a company based on Long Island, took his money but then informed him after a single session that he was not "Ivy League material," the New York Daily News reports. Nazarbayev won admission to Columbia University in Manhattan, a member of the Ivy League, without IvySuccess' assistance.

Nazarbayev received his education in Kazakhstan, a former Soviet republic best known in the United States for its role in "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan." The suit was filed Monday in Manhattan.
