<p>Wow, SV2, that’s an impressive gamble; yeesh! The poster who made the point about applicants falsifying ECs, awards, etc.; I guess the legacy thing comes under the same heading. As for the poster who asked “Who would do something like this?” I think cheating on applications, or at least stretching the truth, is probably more rampant than we think. Anyway, DS is interested in the school where is father graduated as well as the one where his grandfather did, though I don’t think either one ever set foot on campus again, let alone gave money!</p>
<p>Thanks everyone for your thoughts.</p>
