<p>My friend's half english and asian. Would he put "other" on his application? Or would he put caucasion or asian?</p>
<p>He can pick between Asian and Caucasian.</p>
<p>He should pick the one he has identified himself as most of his life.</p>
<p>If he has identified himself as both, tell him tochoose Caucasian, because it will give him a slight advantage.</p>
<p>Alright mj93. </p>
<p>He does identify himself more as caucasian</p>
<p>damn....i wish i could do that</p>
<p>Most colleges have a multi-/biracial option that he could check and then define.</p>
<p>hmmm i wonder who is more disadvantaged in college admissions based on race, whties or asians. I would say asians, so put down caucasian</p>
<p>If I could choose between two evils, I'd pick being labeled a "bright well-rounded kid" over a "textureless math grind" any day of the week.</p>
<p>Translation? Check white and omit Asian.</p>
<p>My son is has a Scottish surname and is half asian. Culturally he considers himself caucasian. So I guess he could legitimately check either the caucasian or mixed box. Strategically, which makes more sense?</p>
<p>Caucasian..i would avoid the Asian box at all costs unless you check the not mentioning box which doesn't matter then.</p>
