<p>Hi,
I am applying to UPenn this fall (ED), and I was just wondering, if I was born in America, but I have parents from 2 different countries (one who is Middle Eastern and the other Asian), should I just leave my ethnicity as "Other"?
Thank you!</p>
<p>Bump!</p>
<p>yea other should be fine</p>
<p>say you are black (north african/middle eastern may even count). It will help. </p>
<p>@knight2011 North African/Middle Eastern is white. OP, you can fill in more than one race (bubble white and Asian).</p>

<p>white or asian will not help OP in the admissions process. I would encourage him or her to leave the ethnicity blank. </p>
