Do grad school take more than one student from the same Undergrad institution?

[worryworryworry]

My senior chemistry class has about eight people applying to graduate school. Me and one other guy are the only ones who have yet to hear back from any schools and no ones gotten a rejection yet. I'm getting pretty worried since two people have gotten acceptances from three of my top choices. Do schools try to limit how many students they take from an individual undergraduate institution?

 

I had some personal issues last year (romantic issues, i.e. nothing that a grad committee would give a damn about) and my G.P.A plummeted from averaging 3.3-3.5 a quarter to averaging 2.95 for last year. I wrote it off in my personal statement as five of our labs research assistants, including 2 masters students and one full time assistant, had graduated the year before and I was left to pick up the slack as the most senior member, which is 100% true but I could have handled it far, far better if I didn't have the other things going on. 

 

Really my only redeeming qualities is my research experience and my letters. My adviser is a very good writer while the others are well respected in their areas. I'll be graduating with two B.S. degrees in Chem and Physics along with a Math minor but I'm really starting to think that's not that big of an asset for grad school. Really wish I just did one B.S. with the minor and then a masters instead.

 

Man this is stressful and I am kind of freaking out a bit here. How screwed am I?

They do! Two of my classmates got into Cornell last year.

Yeah, no distinct limit on admits by undergraduate institution.

I can't imagine that such is a factor at all when making decisions.
