[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone know about Northwestern? Does legacy help if it is the parent who attended the undergraduate school?[/quote] How much legacy, and which type of legacy, helps with admission depends on the school. Northwestern tends to be tight-lipped about whether it helps. I know legacies who were waitlisted or denied whose parents attended grad programs, and one whose parent attended NU for undergrad. I also know a legacy whose parent attended a grad program at NU who was recently accepted, though they had high stats. It's impossible to know how much legacy helped, if at all. Past rumor was that applicants hoping to take advantage of legacy should apply ED to NU.[/quote]
