<p>My parents didn't do their undergrad at Columbia, but both of them did their fellowship and residency there. They also taught a little bit. Does that count for anything? And if it does, should I include it in the additional info page or the in the legacy section?</p>
<p>I'd write it down somewhere in the legacy section, but it's not likely to have anything more than a minimal effect.</p>
<p>This is from the Q&A section of Columbia College Admissions:</p>
<ol>
<li>Does Columbia give preference in the admission process to applicants whose parents attended Columbia?
We are always pleased to receive applications from students whose family members have graduated from Columbia. When an applicant is extremely competitive and compares favorably with other similarly talented candidates, being the daughter or son of a Columbia University graduate (from any Columbia school or college) may be a slight advantage in the admission process. This advantage may especially apply for “legacy” candidates. Please note: applicants are considered to be “legacies” of Columbia only if they are the children of an undergraduate alumnus/a of Columbia College or of The Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science.</li>
</ol>
<p>Technically, you are not considered a legacy. I would include it on your application. I'm not familiar with the application, so I'm not sure which would be the most appropriate place. I suspect it would be the legacy section.</p>
<p>Also include it when it asks what schools your parents attended</p>
