<p>For applying ED, how much “easier” is to get accepted if you are a legacy?</p>
<p>They don't really keep stats on this sort of thing, but speaking for most legacies I know, we deserve to be here. Our stats are the same as and/or higher than pretty much any other applicant.</p>
<p>ED and legacy can be very high at Penn and other schools. Do a search on Google for Penn Legacy Stats and several years are listed for you.</p>
<p>Class of 2009 Early Decision Statistics Penn </p>

<p>· The average combined SAT score for students admitted during EDP is 1413 (694V + 719M).</p>
