Diversity chances?

<p>I know that liberal arts schools like Hamilton are in need of more diversity on their campus, but how much can this help for admissions? I’m wondering whether or not I should bother applying as a transfer because my high school GPA was low (3.0) and my college GPA isn’t as high as it should be (around a 3.7). However, I do come from unique circumstances, and I of Middle-Eastern decent. Will this help at all when it comes to acceptance?</p>
