<p>You’ll have space on the app to show that your mom and your sisters didn’t go to college, but what I think is the most important thing that you show is how you will rise above. How will you be different than they were regarding education.</p>

<p>I think your background is also really interesting for Huntsman.</p>

<p>Best of luck! Write good essays, and you might just get your first choice.</p>
