how much does legacy help?

<p>i'm a sophmore from out of state, and my dream school has always been unc. my mom and grandfather went there, along with numerous aunts and uncles. how much will these legacies help me? i think i'm in the ballpark without the legacies. it would be a reach (so far, given i'm only a sophmore) but not an impossible reach. help!</p>

<p>Being OOS, it might give you a little boost, but it won’t be what gets you in. Just work hard the next couple of years and see how it works out.</p>
