<p>I'm writing on my dad's account but here goes...do you think the fact that I am from New England(Connecticut) will help or hurt my application?</p>
<p>I (modestly) think I am a very good candidate otherwise. Thanks for any advice. :)</p>
<p>Don't worry about things you can't change. Focus on your essays and what makes you unique.</p>
<p>I think rigel123 is definitely correct. There's nothing you can do about it, so why worry?</p>
<p>For what it's worth, I'm from Connecticut and got in (transfer).</p>
