DP. She said in regard to this specific letter that a division working on behalf of admissions—or something like that—sends the letters out. Which sounds a little sus. They can totally find the parents college if they want to.

Our letter hasn’t come yet, though. [/quote]

correct that's what the letter said. so if they are telling the truth, they will not know at all when evaluating apps. [/quote]

Right. B/c if they could see the parent colleges, they would know if the applicant was a legacy[/quote]

DP. The law doesn’t say they can’t see where the parents went to college, only that they can’t use that as a criteria.[/quote]
