<p>Back to the original question, some schools do seem big on legacies. I remember sitting in the Hotchkiss waiting area, reading lots of yearbooks. Every one had a “Siblings” or “Legacies” section (I don’t remember the exact heading, but I do remember that I was struck by it). I was left with the impression that it definitely is a benefit to be a sib or legacy at THAT particularly CHASED school. Perhaps other schools have similar bents but simply don’t “publicize” in the same way.</p>
