Disadvantaged Status
Hi SDN, im trying to answer the "Disadvantaged Status" question on my app. would the following qualify me as a disadvantaged applicant?
-family emigrated as refugees from soviet union escaping religious persecution
-3 other siblings, combined 15k/year income
-public assistance (food stamps, public housing, medicaid)
-designated HPSA
-disabled father
should my answer reflect the adversity i have faced and how i have overcome it? or should i save that for other parts of my app. thank you
