[quote=Anonymous] I don’t know about all colleges but for Harvard a legacy for admissions purposes is the son or daughter of one or more parents who attended Harvard college. Is there additional preference if one grandparent and one parent attended? Asking about Harvard since this poster seems to know about that school, but also generally. Response: I am sure there is additional preference but I don’t know how they count it. I don’t know how other schools do it. I just know Harvard as 1. I am a grad but 2. more importantly I read all the details from the court case which is a fascinating glimpse into these places - assuming they are somewhat similar.. But basically it shows how they classify ‘legacy’ but doesn’t say what they do when there are other bumps - grandfather, aunt, uncle etc. [/quote]
