Common App Question

<p>Hi! My father is from Argentina and my mother is from Puerto Rico, but neither of their families have lived there for more than a few generations, so I definitely consider myself Hispanic, but I can't check the box for "original people of the Americas"....but I don't consider myself white either. </p>

<p>Is it enough to just check "Yes, Hispanic or Latino" and then select Puerto Rico and Argentina from the drop down menu, while leaving the second question blank? I want colleges to know I am latino..</p>

<p>Both questions are optional, you can answer both, either or none.</p>
