@Princetonian9 Academically, you aren’t at the same level as the average accepted student. However, your story, particularly your ethnicity, seems really intriguing. I used to think being a Californian and applying to East Coast schools would be beneficial, and maybe that is the case for most liberal arts, in that they want geographic diversity, but it won’t be all that advantageous with reach schools.
