@“aunt bea” Thank you for your opinion. I already received full ride on two safety schools. I just want to challenge myself with the top leading universities and thoroughly researched before writing the essay.
Regarding helping the police, what I meant is to volunteer and help if they need any. Many of my seniors at NYU does it so thats why I had put the info above earlier.
Which all in-state universities shall consider? I thought ill check with the UC’s but there wont be financial and probably minimal scholarship dept wise…
