[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would NOT say something like "According to family lore." This is the same as suggesting it's not true. I would claim it directly and briefly and offer any support for the claim without a lot of paper. And then maybe say something like: "Given my very strong interest in attending xyz, I am hopeful that this long-standing connection might be another factor you would take into consideration as you review my application."[/quote] No, you don't *say* you want it to be a factor in consideration. Just say that your grand-whatever's legacy adds to your own personal interest in the school in being a part of the school. That it would add meaning to your time studying there, and that's why you're choosing to commit to ED there. [/quote]
