Being a legacy does not get you in-state admissions consideration. Rather, the admit rate for OOS legacy applicants is about the same as that for in-state. However, the OOS legacy pool is quite competitive and plenty of OOS legacy applicants with much better credentials than in-state applicants do not get admitted.
