Transgender First Applications are being accepted until Dec. 31, 2020; Recipients chosen after that By: Patrick DuBois/Trans Headlines*— Transgender and non-binary college applicants are at disproportionate disadvantages due to socio-economic barriers, social anxiety, family isolation, and many more challenges than their counterparts.
