[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Being stronger than your classmates is subjective. Our legacy was admitted SCEA a few weeks ago. His application was very strong, but others might think he wasn't as strong as some other kids. It doesn't matter. I think "Thanks, I'm really lucky" is a great response. Honestly, I think his classmates are lucky that he won't be applying in the regular with them. This is what we say. Kid got into a highly ranked school where dad went. We acknowledge that the legacy bump helped nudge him in. Life isn’t fair so why not be graceful and acknowledge when luck is in your favor. It isn’t putting down your kid by any means. There is a reason your kid decided to apply ED to this specific school - legacy advantage [/quote]
