[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing I don't understand is everyone on this board keeps talking about legacies as if that's some major hook, but everywhere else I read that legacy status is barely a blip these days and is definitely not a needle mover. So which is it?[/quote] I think it’s legacy + consistent donor. Not necessarily seven figure checks, but I know someone who donated five figures to HYPS consistently and their family got a call from admissions when they were going to be deferred. Kid was smart but not remotely HYPS level. They ended up applying ED2 elsewhere. I figure there are plenty of parents in finance, big law, etc. who can donate that much and it tips the scale.[/quote] For an unqualified applicant it is eight figures now [/quote]
