Hey all,
So i’m an FL resident, but I am interested in applying to some schools that have strong preference for IS applicants. I’m referring to UC Irvine mainly, but I have what I perceive as strong connections in CA, NY, and NJ so my question can apply to the other strong IS preference schools in those states.
CA: My sister and dad live there now, as well as my dads family that we’ve spent holidays with every year so I’ve traveled to CA yearly my whole life.
NJ: My cousins (closest family that is not my immediate family) live on the border of NJ and NY and we’ve visited them 3+ times a year my entire life, so I would have a lot of interest to practice/go to school there.
NY: My sister lived there for 6 years before moving to CA, but also as mentioned with my cousins we would visit NY every time we came to see them in NJ. So about 3+ times a year coming to NY as well. Also a huge Knicks and Giants fan for what it’s worth.
My question is, is it worth trying to apply to some of these schools with heavy IS bias or should I save the money for something else? UC Irvine, Keck, Rutgers, NYU LI, NYMC are all schools that lean towards instate applicants that I was interested in.
Thank you for your time!
