<p>I personally have not heard of graduate-level legacy admissions. Do the grad school applications to Stanford have a space to list your legacy affiliations? (I just finished a PhD application to Stanford, and there wasn’t anywhere to put affiliation, though it might depend on what program you apply to and whether it’s MS or PhD.)</p>

<p>This always makes me laugh, because Stanford is the only elite school (among HYPSM, at least) that gets a lot of flack for AA. If you look at the % of students in each minority category, against a school like Harvard, both have 8% black students; both have about 1% native (Stanford’s total native population has dropped from its previous 3%); and both are 17-18% Asian; and though Stanford has a higher proportion of Hispanic students, that’s to be expected given that it gets a large portion of its applicants from California, which has an extremely large Hispanic population.</p>
<p>This is, at least from what I’ve seen on CC, how people tend to treat AA for different schools, even though the statistics tell them otherwise.</p>
