<p>I'm a new member here so I'm not positive if this is the correct area i should be posting in so I'm sorry for the inconvience if I did. So my question is do colleges really look at if you have a family member who attended the school. I'm a African American male who's dad got a full ride to Stanford coming out of Brooklyn, New York. He was one of the top of his class too at Stanford. You see I am just a so-so student(3.7)who is torn about applying to Stanford, because I'm not sure if its even worth it. Thoughts?</p>
<p>Yeah, it helps a lot.</p>
<p>But is it worth applying too</p>
