<p>To start things off, i'd like to thank anyone who has the courtesy and time to stop by and give me honest and RESPECTFUL answers. Okay so as you might have read before I have a huge interest in Brown University because of its rich diversity in both students and faculty, awesome academics and generous financial aid packages. With that being said I'd be much appreciated if you' all gave me your input on my possibilities on attending there for the fall of 2015(I'm a Junior in high school). I'm basically a first generation everything, First in my family to speak English fluently, first in my family to even attend and hopefully finish high school and first in my family of college dreams and aspirations. I first moved to the U.S. at the age of five and knew nothing or no one, including my parents. It took me a while to not just assimilate to a new way of life, but to also truly appreciate the education I was being given. As of now I have an embarrassing 2.8 gpa that could rise to a 3.0 if I maintain my current 4.2 gpa, I've taken 4 honors and an AP class as of now and just recently scored a 34 on the ACT. I'm part of the DECA CLUB, French club and STARTED a Youth Hispanic club at my school and an International "society" type of club were we appreciate and learn about new and different cultures. I also volunteered as a Spanish--- English translator for Elementary and Middle schools in my district as I know how frustrating and almost emotional taunting it is to not have anyone understand you or your parents. I did some volunteering at the salvation army, volunteered to coach little kids at my previous soccer club and hope to try out and MAKE the U-18 Chicago Fire Academy this June of 2014.</p>
<p>P.S. Sorry If it was too long, but I wanted to give as much info in as little time possible. Oh I almost forgot, I'm also an undocumented immigrant who is currently under the Deferred Action for Childhood arrivals (DACA) and am of a low income family($35,000 a year to be precise) :(</p>
