Legacy applicants?

<p>I know if you are an out-of-state applicant, but have a legacy at UVa, they put your application in the in-state pile. However, I'm wondering what UVa considers a legacy. My older brother went there several years ago as an Echols Scholar. Would they consider that, or does anybody besides admission people even know? Thanks in advance...</p>

<p>i emailed them the same question awhile ago, and they responded saying it's just parents and step-parents, which is true of most places</p>
