Man, where do i Begin, as a person who grew up in poverty 18 years of my life and getting into harvard with a full scholarship made me the happiest person in the world. I grew up in harlem, NY, i lived with 6 family members in a crammed studio apartment. I didn't have much in life and i wanted to get out of poverty so i decided to work extremely hard in my education. I worked hard all my life and want to stuyvesant high school in the city and worked hard to get a 4.0 gpa and scored 2340 on my sats. My parents didn't have any money to support themselves let alone me. When i came to harvard with a very happy spirt i was destroyed by the student body after 2 months of classes. People here are VERY pompous, arrogant and extremely rich. I am a black student and people don't even associate with me i get treated like crap every single day by everyone. There are very few african americans in the school and if you do find one you can't relate cause their rich and look down upon you. I was walking down the campus one day and these group of white kids looked at me and said " why are you negros here, go back to africa". I thought people were supposed to be nice but they weren't. Everyone is so Self absorbed and think they are King of the world. They treat people like crap. I have very little friends if none. If your a poor kids then it's hard to socialize because everyone spends loads of money to party but i end up feeling left out because i can't afford to spend money. I ended up transferring to CUNY Baruch, back with my family because people at this school treated me as if i was nothing. Being a african american students and being underrepresented at any top college will make you feel left out. My advice is if your a minority student especially black don't go here because you will feel left out. I currently love Cuny Baruch and i have made many friends here, and people always give me shocked looks when i tell them i transferred from harvard. But why go to a college where you will never find happiness?
