<p>One of my uncles and two of my cousins have attended Brown university. Since they are not my immediate family, would I still be considered a legacy?</p>
<p>…anyone?</p>
<p>Unless they are major benefactors, no, but it still may weigh slightly in your favor, because it shows you’re familiar with the school and that your family has some sort of tie there.</p>
<p>I don’t think you’re considered a legacy.</p>
<p>I’m under the assumption that only direct lineage in legacy, though it wouldn’t hurt at all to mention that on your app.</p>
<p>a slight one it won’t be of big impact. they usually look at immidiate family. if it was those people and your mom and dad it’d be very powerful.</p>
<p>If they didn’t pay for a building, then no. People with parents that went to Brown get rejected all the time - meaning YOUR credentials are what matter</p>
<p>No, your uncles and cousins do not count as legacies.</p>
