Penn’s longstanding definition of a legacy applicant — the child or grandchild of an alum — has not changed. However, Penn no longer implies that legacies should apply through the Early Decision Program to have the best shot at getting in. In addition, Penn has phased out admissions information sessions specifically for legacy families.
"Legacies who apply to Penn—like all applicants—receive thorough consideration in the application process," the policy now reads. 
Under the previous wording — which admissions counselors have long used in the advice they give to families — Penn told legacy applicants that their status as a legacy would be given the “most consideration” during the Early Decision Program.

这意思好像是 legacy 相比从前会少了优待政策

sibling 算啊, 所以不知道这政策对小中是好还是不好。 小中上藤的不少,他们的兄弟姐妹及以后后代都算 legacy

喔,UPenn 可能是这样的,知道有其他藤把兄弟姐妹是校友的也算里面的
听说今年我们隔壁村有个小中女孩被 Princeton 早录了,她姐姐就是 Princeton 毕业的,不知道有没有关系

我没觉着有大的变化,除了措辞能让非legacy安心
