<p>Many LACs that I have been looking at such as Middlebury have a very low Asian population when compared to ivies. Would Asians have an advantage at LACs?</p>
<p>Yes, if the universities are looking to increase ethnic diversity, we do have a very good shot.</p>
<p>Yes, Middlebury would be a good choice for Asians, especially if you’re an Asian male.</p>
<p>Yes, many LACs consider Asians URMs and include them in diversity weekends and other recruitment efforts. Your chances at a LAC will likely be greater than at a research university.</p>
<p>I am an Asian male with the typical ivy league applicant stats. Would my chances be greater at williams, Amherst, swartmore and middlebury</p>
<p>I think your chances will be greater at those top LACs than Ivies. At least you are not ORM at those schools.</p>
<p>I had better than average stats and I applied to 3 LACs.</p>
