I think there are hundreds of applicants from disadvantaged back grounds and this does factor into the admissions decision.
I hope to fall into the category you’ve described and will post back when I hear back from the colleges.
I second what he said ^^ I worked very hard to convey my struggles in my essays. I ended up submitting them to an outside writing competition with tens of thousands of submissions every year and I placed at the highest level of recognition for my essays, which I hope is an indicator that I did a good job. Fingers crossed for March.
