@jessy168 the LOCIs that my friends and I have been writing are in essay form. There isnāt really a recommended word count. I typically wrote a paragraph explaining my intentions with the school, a paragraph expressing why Iām still interested in the school and what programs and specific aspects of the schools appeal to me, and a paragraph wrapping it up and asking if thereās anything I can do to strengthen my applicant standing in the regular pool. hope this helps
Thank you so much, will definitely check out the videos!!

Deferred. 1540 sat. 100 unweighted GPA. NMSF. What would the NMF merit award be anyway?
I got into Northeastern early decision this year. For anyone that got deferred I would definitely recommend reaching out to your admissions officer and express interest or anything not displayed in your application. My stats are lower than average at NU and I think that the conversations I had with my admission counselor is a big part of why I got in. Hope this helps! Good luck!
Daughter accepted with Deanās scholarship- applied for international business. She has much higher merit aid offers from other schools so we will see. Sheās just excited to be accepted

Race (bc I feel that it was important for my situation): African/Black
GPA might not be that pretty, but I went to my stateās STEM boarding school for 2yrs (transferred before senior yr) which was on a trimester schedule so my transcript is loaded in terms of difficulty/rigor and quantity. Also I maxed out my Common App Activities List with high quality ECs (or at least I think theyāre pretty good), so I feel that couldāve made up a little for my subpar GPA. My counselor & teacher recs were both from ppl Iād known for 3 months max, so I cannot assume they were crazy powerful, but obviously they were effective enough. Overall, I definitely feel like I had the merit to be accepted, but I canāt deny that being black probably helped a bit, even if Iām far from low income.

I wish I knew how to private message you! I got in!
Deanās Scholarship for only $14,000 which puts it out of reach, do you suppose if I get NMF that it will go up?
I am so proud that I got in!
