Question on legacy status

<p>Does UChicago consider legacy status in college application like other Ivy schools? Can kids whose parents having graduate degrees from UofC be considered for legacy status? Thanks</p>

<p>Thanks for the quick response. I also heard people saying only kids of the College graduates are given legacy considerations. Just trying to clarify.</p>

<p>I know what you are trying to ask, and I’m not sure what the answer is. but either way does it really matter?..</p>

<p>Question from Aaronyah–</p>

<p>UChicago: On the supplement there is a section where you can list any family affiliation with UChicago. Do you think I should put down my sister?</p>

<p>Response from UChicago–
College Rep</p>

<p>Yes, you are welcome to put down your sister there. Any student with any affiliation is welcome to list such there-- this space is appropriate for both disclosing legacy status (parent, grandparent), listing a sibling who attends either the College or graduate school, or noting that a close relative works or worked at UChicago even in a non-academic capacity (say your grandfather was a maintenance worker in the hospital system for 40 years-- we would be happy to have you note that, too).</p>
