Would saying I'm transgender be a hook for HYPS?

Adcoms don’t assume whether or not there is family support. Ime, they realize many kids are LGBT or questioning and that this crosses many socio-economic lines. No one should over-interpret the question. Admissions isn’t really the point at which a U would evaluate the need for support programs.

If anything, adcoms are very clued into teen behavior; they deal with kids all year, year in and year out. I will agree OP shows a lack of understanding of both the identity and how admissions works.
