Update: My cousin is also a legacy at lawrenceville and wrote me a letter of recommendation- I also applied with rolling admission for this year as a sophmore, but was waitlisted due to a lack of spots (which I expected becasue I applied over the summer during covid). Also, I am no longer class president so i know that that might hurt my resume. However I have also organized community service events during covid (2 different events, one in the newspaper) and I am planning to continue with some sort of community service. The reason for applying to these schools is increased iopprotunity, but also becasue my home life is not great and Im really seeking an escape/community that can support my pasions and interests. (also im sorry about my bad spelling for this whole thing, my keyboard is a little broken)
