Multiple Legacies on APP

<p>In the legacy section of app it has different relationship options (Parent, Sibling, or Parent/ Sibling) So if I pick the 3rd one (parent/ sibling) can I list both of my legacies like dad's name/ sister's name, and so on cause it only gives you one line. however it dosn't let you fill in more than one set of dates in the date of entry section so I do not know how one can use the Parent/ sibling tab and correctly fill it out.</p>

<p>So should I just pick one of my relations, and not report the other? </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I would just fill out the parent in the main app, and then in additional information, provide the additional legacy (using the same format, but say sibling). </p>

<p>That’s just what I’d do…</p>

<p>My dad went to grad school at JHU
My sister went to undergrad at JHU</p>

<p>Which do you think is more imprortant to put in the legacy section?</p>

<p>Hmm.. that’s a good question. Frankly, I’ve heard that if you’re not applying ED or EA etc, the benefit of legacy is limited. </p>

<p>I’d say it doesn’t matter which goes where, but I’d put dad in the main app…</p>

<p>List your Dad’s information in the Legacy section and your Sister’s information in the additional information section. As well, in the Parent/Sibling section you are going to once again list that you Dad and Sis attended Hopkins. It doesn’t matter where this information is listed in an application, just that it is there. The Admissions Counselors are savvy people, and we know where to find information.</p>

<p>And AdamJaz is wrong… Legacy matters as much during ED as it does RD.</p>

<p>I was just remembering some random threads like <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/yale-university/161034-how-much-does-legacy-count.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/yale-university/161034-how-much-does-legacy-count.html&lt;/a&gt; (found on search)</p>

<p>but, that person had no authority, nor is this the same school being discussed.</p>
