<p>Well, the application form asks you to fill in your race, and besides, coming from Colombia (and probably having a spanish name) should make it clear..</p>

<p>yeah, just fill in your ethnicity on the first part of the common app</p>

<p>If you are an international student you are counted as that, an international student, and not as a member of any United States ethnic group defined by federal regulations. See </p>

<p>for a link to the relevant regulation. </p>

<p>Harvard will of course know what country you are from, and know that that makes you different from people from other countries, thus adding diversity to the freshman class at Harvard. I have no idea how many applicants usually apply to Harvard from your country or from any particular country.</p>
