<p>hey, i wanted to know that if you are born in a different country, but are now a US Citizen, does it help get into college compared to being born here? (i was born in india, and moved here when i was young)</p>
<p>Doesn't help.<br>
On the other hand, being Asian may hurt your chances in top schools because of heavy competition from fellow Asians with sky-high GPA & test scores and tailor-made ECs.</p>
<p>How about being Latino? Not much competition there</p>
<p>Being Latino/a is definitely a plus. Being Asian is not. Sorry...</p>
<p>ahh..oo well</p>
<p>if there was only 1 race, there wouldnt ever be a problem with getting into a college since ur a minority or not</p>
