<p>Will having asian parents, but being a natural born citizen along with being Muslim have any effect on my chances without looking at all my stats?
Do you need my stats to help you decide?</p>
<p>It should not, although being Asian generally doesn't help you when it comes to college admissions.</p>
<p>could being of a minority religion be beneficial or having parents who immigrated from pakistan be beneficial or harmful or irrelevant</p>
<p>Largely irrelevant. It might make for good talking points during the interview or personal statement, but it won't have a tremendous impact on your application.</p>
<p>you can always talk about it in your essay</p>
