I was just wondering:
Is a Harvard grad that is your parent’s cousin help any in the admission process?
Thanks.
That will not count at all. I think they only count immediate family members and direct antecedents. Bear in mind that legacy only provides a minor “bump” at Harvard nowadays, unless there are millions of dollars or global celebrity involved. I have nieces and nephews who could claim a father, both grandfathers, and uncles on both sides. They were good enough students for Barnard, Columbia Engineering, Georgetown, and Kenyon, but they did not get into Harvard.
Nope, not a drop.
