<p>Does legacy only help your chances if your parents/grandparents went to a school? Or does it work for Aunts/Uncles/Sibilings...</p>
<p>I'm asking because I have a brother that goes to Harvard with a pretty good record and reasonable connections and I was wondering if that would help me out..</p>
<p>I'm wondering the same thing about the aunts/uncles. Does it count for cousins, too?</p>
<p>still waiting for a reply :9</p>
<p>You need to check the websites of the individual schools. Many schools limit legacy to parents; some include grandparents; a few might include siblings. I've never heard of one that formally includes aunts, uncles or cousins.</p>
<p>"Legacy" at Harvard means that your parents graduated from Harvard or Radcliffe College.</p>
