<p>I know this a very jaded question but I have never found a solid answer and hoping someone can clear it up! I am full Egyptian. Egypt is in Africa however North African/Mediterranean. On the college app do I mark White, African American, or Other?</p>
<p>Look at post #8 here</p>

<p>You list “white”</p>
<p>Yes, the first reply is correct. Of course all college applicants (you and anyone else) have the right to not mark any response at all on the optional questions about race and ethnicity. The FAQ has full details about the definitions, the law on the questions being optional, and as much detail as is known about current practices of colleges. </p>
<p>Good luck in your applications.</p>
