Legacy transfers?

<p>Does anyone know if being a legacy is factored into the admissions process of a transfer student? Also, does it hurt your chances of acceptance as a transfer if you never applied to U of M for freshman admissions?</p>

<p>I got in as a transfer and didn’t apply as a freshman, it would have been laughable had I applied with my high school performance. I believe they ask questions about legacy status on the transfer app, too. Why wouldn’t they?</p>
