<p>I have 5 family members who graduated from there? Does that affect my application drastically, or hardly?</p>
<p>More hardly than drastically unless your family has donated a 7 figure sum to the school lately.</p>
<p>If an applicant is borderline, it would likely tip them into being accepted. Otherwise, no.</p>
<p>I know nothing aboutNortheastern, but I’ve heard others cite some small benefit caused by yield protection - someone with a legacy family is more likely to attend than someone with similar stats but no prior connection to the college.</p>
No it doesn’t
