        Almost all Universities have the same rule; if U have a relative went to a Uni ur chances of getting accepted is so much higher if not 100% I am surprised Harvard has 33% acceptance rate among relative applicants

        No competitive admissions dept admits 100% of legacies. That direct mean you don’t have hugely better odds, but it isn’t a sure thing.

        Harvard and other IVY League prestigious institutions have a become "club" where membership is passed on for generations.

        Academic excellence should be the only qualifier. Start at the top and work down from there. Nepotism, race, creed, and color are non starters, and are probably illegal, or should be.

        Not quite the educational powerhouse it claims to be, just more elitist who you know or genetic lottery winners. Please select some Supreme Court Justices that haven't gone to elitist IVY League schools. Plenty of quality schools west of the Rocky Mountains.
