Legacy.... alumni

How much does a legacy count for the following colleges

Univ. of Chicago (cousin)
Stanford (Brother and cousin graduated)
UC. Berekely (Cal) (Sister attends)

If your cousin is an alumni does that help?

<p>You'll have to check with each school. I am unaware of any college where "cousin" counts. Some school will count siblings, others are limited to parents only, some parents and grandparents. The school websites probably have this info.</p>

<p>UC Berkeley doesnt take legacy as a factor in admissions, but if you get in, they will try to treat you as one (mail you extra stuff).</p>
