<p>Is this a serious question?</p>

<p>I’ve found that some of the smartest guys who go here may have the smallest bit of actual common sense. Look at your resume, then look at the requirements.</p>

<p>Go post that in a Yale forum.</p>

<p>You’re definitely not automatic for Lehigh but being first generation and fluent in Russian are definitely good hooks. Just make sure to demonstrate interest by visiting and contacting people at Lehigh and emphasize that you are first generation and you should get in.</p>
