Angela Diaz
- ... that Angela Diaz was accepted into Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons despite not taking the standard medical school exams or paying the $15 application fee? HSPH alumna’s immigrant journey inspires career transforming teens’ health "Diaz stopped in at Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons—also in her neighborhood—and picked up an application. She’d never given up her dream of becoming a doctor, so she met with an admissions officer and made the case that even though she hadn’t taken the standard medical school exams and didn’t have the $15 application fee, she could handle the work."

| General: Article is new enough and long enough |

Policy compliance:
- Adequate sourcing:
- A lot of these sources seem to only be good as WP:BLPPRIMARY and to not contribute towards notability—I'm concerned that the quality of sourcing isn't up to snuff for a BLP. - Neutral:
- Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing: - some sentences have some close paraphrasing according to this earwig check, but it shouldn't be a huge thang.

- Theleekycauldron, Per WP:Academic:
Once the passage of one or more notability criteria has been verified through independent sources, or through the reliable sources listed explicitly for this purpose in the specific criteria notes, non-independent sources, such as official institutional and professional sources, are widely accepted as reliable sourcing for routine, uncontroversial details.
HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 12:42, 25 September 2021 (UTC)- @HickoryOughtShirt?4: fair enough—is there an alternate claim to notability, other than GNG? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 21:50, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

Seems to fit NACADEMIC#3, then. I'll pass the article on the sourced requirement, so we're much closer. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 02:56, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
