<p>Hi I am planning to apply to Georgia Tech in the next few weeks. All of my family including my Mom, Dad, and Sister have all gone to Georgia Tech. So I was wondering if alumni status has any effect on Georgia Tech's selection committee and my chances.
Thanks</p>
<p>It's on the app. I don't know if it is used.</p>
<p>You have a definite edge for legacy status. Even if you don't get accepted, their legacy program allows you to transfer a specific number of credits for a guaranteed acceptance after an extra year. But I think you're golden if you're a decent student.</p>
