On the supplement on the common app it asks if any parents/grandparents/great grandparents have attended Cornell. I don’t have that but my cousin went there and was on the board of trustees for a while, although he’s not involved anymore. There doesn’t seem to be any place I could put this but I have a feeling it might help since Ivy’s are big on the whole legacy thing and he was pretty involved. Any suggestions of how to add it in somewhere?
