<p>dardar persian doesnt really help (I am arab, and all Middle eastern students are considered "caucasian"), you are a pretty solid candidate the only problem is that you are out of state so it is always very hard for out of state people. Have you considered applying to private schools? They will cost you about the same and a)you will be paying the same as others attending b)you will have a stronger shot.</p>
