[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I realize I don’t know anything about legacies. I thought legacy applied mostly for Undergraduate degree.. But does the idea of legacy also apply for graduate School? Parents only? What about grandparents? Aunts/Uncles?[/quote] The legacy connection will only help your kid if donations have been made regularly and loyally over the years, and are sizable enough to suggest that there is more to come. Any college that is considering a legacy applicant isn't concerned with perpetuating a family tradition for tradition's sake; rather colleges are concerned with the flow of dough. If you've been giving regularly since your graduation, and have proved loyal and dependable in terms of financial support, then there's a reasonable possibility that your kid will do the same. But if you haven't been a loyal donor, don't expect the legacy connection to do anything for your kid. In fact, it may work against him.[/quote]
