<p>-The To-Be Rejected Coot66</p>
<p>aww Coot66, don't be too hard on yourself!</p>
<p>oh, and sorry to break it to ya, but Legacy for Penn is only if a parent went there.. having a sister there doesn't really help you =/</p>
<p>Actually, a Penn rep at my school told me they'd take my sister's attendance "into consideration" (to use his quote), so it's bound to help a little... (I asked a question about legacy and then specifically about siblings)...</p>
