Semi-legacy question #2

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Assume a highly selective school. The applicant's family has significant alums in the family (three grandparents, two aunts, one cousin) but parents did not attend said university.</p>

<p>How helpful is it to the applicant's admission's chances at that school?</p>

2

<p>If the family donated gobs of money to the school, and by gobs I mean building-named-after-you kind of thing, then it will help. Otherwise, not really.</p>
