Diversity at BC

<p>thanks :)
it's weird applying from here...nobody i know is applying to the northeast.i can't wait to get to new england for college!</p>

<p>hm I've often heard being Native American is a huge plus for all schools esp. if you have your tribe number or w.e. I wonder if thats true. I never quite thought race mattered that much but at my school some kids got rejected from Virginia Tech with all around a 3.5 and 1200ish sats and a spanish kid got in with a 3.4 and a 1120. The spanish kid did nothing extraordinary.</p>

<p>I'm Hispanic, and I'm a Scholar Finalist in the National Hispanic Recognition Program...I'm really hoping it'll boost my application a bit, since I saw very few minorities when I went to BC, though certainly more than Georgetown...</p>
