Weight of Legacy?

<p>How much does Legacy get factored in to ED ? I have more than 4 legacy applicants from my school and I was just wondering.</p>

<p>It’s a significant factor. It won’t make anyone with bad grades/scores/ECs/etc. get in, but I hear that if you are borderline a legacy will put you over. Don’t worry about other kids from your school, they won’t have a significant factor into your decision.</p>

<p>I think it has about the same weight as being a URM… maybe a little less. But the likelihood of ALL of them getting in and the officers then being like “oh we can’t take another kid from this school rejected lol” once they get to your file is pretty low.</p>
