Background: Native American male from a low income household with substance abuse issues (I go into detail in my common app easy as well as the “extra information to consider” section of the common app). Also from a geographically unrepresented state in NYU. I am also a first generation student. In my common app short answer, I focus on their Mock Trial team and internships.
I think this is interesting and actually possible because NYU boasts a “holistic” review of applications, and I wanted to see what everyone else thinks.
