For those less than fully qualified, there is the Harvard Z-List. Especially now, Harvard would not let a good major donor candidate go to waste.

But neither finished, right?

Yes, neither of them graduated but many people on DCUM are armchair experts in admissions, considering that Harvard doesn't care about dropouts, those are not legacies by any stretch of the imagination.
