We specifically encourage students who are UFLI (Undocumented, First-Generation College and Low-Income), LGBTQ+, have an underrepresented racial and/or ethnic background, and/or students for whom academic opportunities are geographically inaccessible to apply.

What counts as an academic sample?

An academic sample is any graded school assignment submitted within the past two years that includes original writing (a paper, presentation, etc.). If you are unsure about whether a submission qualifies, you may contact us via email.

What activities should I list?

Activities may be extracurriculars, familial responsibilities, and/or employment. Activities do not have to be academic (e.g. babysitting).

How do I explain my school’s GPA scale?

Please indicate the maximum possible score (4.0, 5.0, 100, 108, 12, A+, etc.) and any weights associated with your GPA (AP weight, honors weight). If your school does not award formal GPAs, please calculate one by dividing your total points by your credit hours.
