<p>Hey,
Does legacy only count when your parents are columbia alumni, or does it also count when its a brother/sister who is an alum?</p>
<p>legacy is strictly for children of parents who graduated from cc/seas.
columbia does care if you are a sibling of a graduate.
in practical terms they both help you a little bit in the application process, the only big difference i am aware of is that columbia holds a reception during orientation and graduation for children of legacies.</p>
