I was just wondering if legacy includes a family member that used to work at the institution in which I would like to apply to. I know that direct family members that attended count, but what about if they had a job there?
Thanks in advance!
No
And since they no longer work there, no tuition discount.
Some schools do admit students of employees when those students meet entrance requirements. You would not get accepted if you had a close relative who was currently employed and eligible for a child with good credentials to for admission. A relative that was a former employee might provide some insight about the school, but not qualify a,student for admissions.
