Relative at Harvard already: Improve chances?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hey-- </p>

<p>Ok, so I have a cousin right now at Harvard (freshman at the moment), I was just wondering if that would help my chances at all... I know it sounds stupid, I just heard from someone it would, and I wanted to ask if anyone knew. I know it depends on a lot more than that... I was just curious if it could give me any bonus points.</p>

<p>No, it would NOT improve your chances, unless that "relative" is one of your parents.</p>

<p>oh ok, thanks, I was just curious.</p>

<p>"unless that "relative" is one of your parents."</p>

<p>you know, my friend went to one of those guided harvard informational on-campus tour thingies and was telling me her guide was saying how if you have a person who goes to harvard already, they give you slight preference... someone lied.</p>
