Hi everyone, the current SoP for UW's master program for psychology and is asking for specific diverse backgrounds I possess, either opportunities or disadvantages. However, I'm a generic white woman who grew up in a middle class family and environment. I am a first generation student suffering some severe ADD. I don't know if having ADD is considered a diverse background but I have been a tutor for a year at my university! I'll copy the prompt below: Our program actively seeks and welcomes students from diversebackgrounds. To the extent that you are comfortable, use specificexamples to provide a statement about how your life experiences/personalhistory, family background, involvement in your community activities,educational experiences, and/or work experiences enable you to contribute to thediversity of our educational environment. The statement should address educational, cultural, and economicopportunities and disadvantages that you have experienced, and ways thoseexperiences have affected the development of your career plans and future goals.
