Writing scholarship essays suck.

Kyle, can I email you my drafts tomorrow instead of tonight? My brain is done.

Paying your own way to college sucks more. Quit griping. Considering the Tigers/Yankees game's postponed until tomorrow you can email me as late as Friday because I'm not reviewing them until at least tomorrow night anyway.

Just be careful you don't end up being courted by a school who wants you to make their numbers look nice. I had that happen to me last year.

Apparently with me he could check the boxes female, minority, refugee, mutant and a few others.

You also have the big 'advantage' of having a kind of less scary powers. That way they can look progressive without risking their student being hit by lasers or something.

When I applied to various schools around here, all seemed to know I was a mutant since I had my education both at Xavier's and the school in Attilan. One man asked me straight out in an interview (the reason I didn't go there), but at a few others it was clearly implied.

On the other hand, there are a few scholarships specifically for mutants, if I remember correctly. Mr. Haller gave me some information about that. So you can also use it to your advantage if you want.
