<p>Being from a rural Connecticut town, does that put me in a disadvantage because so many people apply from Connecticut?</p>
<p>not really. having geographic diversity to offer helps, but but being with alot of people in a region doesn't really hurt.</p>
<p>I'm from a rural town in CT as well, and I made it to Cornell. Don't worry about it.</p>
