<p>What I have observed is quite different. Having had 3 kids go to 3 different legacy filled high schools, I’ve seen year after year of ivy legacies getting into only the ivy where they were a legacy. Don’t get me wrong, all non development legacies I’ve seen that got in had reasonable stats for the school, certainly higher than the athletes, but most did not have the earth shattering resume to get them into the others.</p>
<p>Princeton takes more legacies than any other ivy, about 50% of legacy applicants are accepted, no way most in this group are getting into HYPS.</p>
