<p>Hey quick question. </p>
<p>I'm an Israeli but also hispanic...will this give me double a hook?</p>
<p>I've heard that Princeton is diverse, but not as diverse as some of it's peer schools. Someone told me that being Latina will really help me, (Princeton has 9% hispanic students?) but I can't decide how much being Israeli will help too.</p>
<p>THANKS!!!</p>
<p>Isreali is not a minority status.</p>
<p>Hispanic might play a role assuming you are applying as an immigrant in US.</p>
<p>so it won’t help me at all? Even though it’s not a minority, will they like that it brings more diversity? </p>
<p>I too have a question…</p>
<p>my moms side is all Latina and my dad’s side is South African. If I claim that I am both…how much will this be to my advantage? At least for a school like Princeton, an you say it’s not as diverse?</p>
<p>I’m confused about urm and that stuff </p>
<p>Sorry, but not likely to be of help. There’s just too many good Hispanic students out there. </p>
<p>I think I’m also a double minority…I’m half African American and half Japanese, although I’m not sure if being Asian would be of any advantage for me (I feel like it won’t count as an URM)…I don’t think putting down that you’re Hispanic and Israeli will ever be a disadvantage for you, but who knows if it’ll help you, either. </p>
<p>Just say you;re latino ; forget Israel. THey have plenty of good Jewish applicants. But if you dont have the high sats, grades, or on the fencing team, or, you wrote a great novel at 17, why bother applying there? </p>
<p>It does not help a foreigner, only someone at least with a greencard. Foreigners are treated under international category and won’t have any URM statuses.</p>
<p>if you’re depending on your racial status to get you into a school, you don’t belong there. latinos at princeton are accepted because of their merits, too.</p>
