[quote=Anonymous]The most important thing in admissions is hooks. With the new DEI climate, URM is not the hook it once was. Don’t think of “hooks” or “points” so narrowly. They are simply advantages in holistic admissions at selective universities. ALDC is still a hook. Your HS can be a hook if a feeder or very poor and low performing. Your major can be a hook. Your geography can be a hook. National awards in an individual sport that is a well-funded club sport (looking at you Stanford) can be a hook. Full pay may be a hook this year. We’ll see.[/quote]
