Thank you and well the NE is my priority to go to college not so much my own state couse education is hindered to a few good schools that are isolated from the big cities < this does not include the University of Miami which i am not applying because of it’s expensive tuition and because i want to move out of South Florida> also while looking through QuestbRIDGE I found out that 2 of my top schools Dartmouth and UPenn do not offer loans as a means to pay for tuition but rather grants based on need. however when looking on the percentage of hispanics on these schools about 8-6 % of enrolled students were hispanic, does this mean that they will take special consideration to an extend towards hispanic and other less represented minority students. Please let me know more. Also does my short residence in this country, 5 years, help me when applying to these schools.
