I am wondering if I classify as a disadvantaged student. I am Asian (East Indian, specifically). In the section where it says disadvantaged I feel I have economical and educational disadvantages but not sure what to put there.
Story real quick is that my parents had no education, and immigrated here when I was about 5. Due to lack of education they were unable to hold jobs and the jobs they held drew in about 30k a year family income. In order to have some sort of job and livelihood we moved around and I went to 11 schools in 7 different states/provinces in USA and Canada in 13 years (k-12). The longest place I went to school I believe is 3 years and that was in high school. I didn't have a best friend until college, or any friends really, felt like I was always the new guy so education aside it was hard enough being accepted before I could start focusing in class through my years. But by the time I did, we would move.
I'm just wondering if that shows/has any economic/educational disadvantages that would qualify in that part or am I trying to say something that doesn't belong there? please let me know i would greatly appreciate it.
