Legacy

Hi! My mom went to Brandeis, and I would like to demonstrate that on my application- however, the drop down surrounding if relatives went to Brandeis simply says “Are any of those relatives a grandparent, aunt, uncle, cousin, or other type of relative?”. Does my mom count as an “other type of relative”, or do they assume I don’t need to put her down because of the fact that her alba mater is on my common application? Thanks!
