but then again what are the other uc's gonna think of this? that i'll choose ucsd over them
wouldnt it?

Hmm...that's confusing

But I don't think so.

Your brother attending at UC does not mean u want to go to UCSD.

I would do it.

Um, only if they assume you want to go to school with your brother...

Don't they already ask if siblings attended the UC on another part of the application?

By Nealyac (Nealyac) on Monday, December 01, 2003 - 12:59 am: Edit

no they dont. they only ask if your parents work there

By Nealyac (Nealyac) on Monday, December 01, 2003 - 01:00 am: Edit

does legacy affect admissions at UCs? even at different UCs

By Nealyac (Nealyac) on Monday, December 01, 2003 - 01:12 am: Edit

i dont know

By Coureur (Coureur) on Monday, December 01, 2003 - 01:20 am: Edit

Legacy has zero effect on UC admissions. They don't ask it on the app. It's like recs: many schools ask for them, but the UCs don't care and don't wanna know.
