[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, an older sibling doesn't necessarily confer legacy status, but it can be considered a plus, since the school feels that it knows what it is getting with respect to the family.[/quote] Whether or not the school refers to a sibling relationship as a "legacy", it is certainly a plus at many schools for the same reason that any familial relationship may be considered a plus: it is likely to result in greater loyalty to the school, particularly as reflected by giving. Having worked in admissions and in development at a SLAC, I would say this is a prevalent view among many professionals in these fields. [/quote] What about an uncle? I think my son would thrive at the SLAC that my brother attended. Think that might tip the scales in his favor? [/quote]
