Legacy.

Colleges and Universities A-Z Harvard University

<p>Hi, I just wanna ask a simple question.</p>

<p>You see, my dad graduated the Harvard University - John F. Kennedy School of Government, and I was wondering whether that could give me the 'legacy advantage'.
I heard that unless my dad(or any of my relatives) went to the College (not the grad school), then it won't matter much whether my dad went to Harvard or not. Is this true?
I mean, does one's parents have to be a Harvard College grad in order to be given the "legacy advantage"? Or is it okay, as long as my dad went to Harvard, whether it be the College or a grad school?</p>

<p>I'm a double legacy at the college, and everything I've heard or read says that your parent(s) had to attend either Harvard College or Radcliffe. The Graduate Schools don't count. Sorry.</p>
