minor COMMON APP mistake...

<p>i picked asian , and not asian-american for ethnicity
i guess i didnt notice there was too</p>

<p>should i send an e-mail to say that i'm actually asian-american? will it affect my admission decision if they think im just asian (maybe they hold asian internationals to a higher standard?)</p>

<p>some1 answeeeeeeeeeeeer come on quit breakin my balls</p>

<p>just send an email, it's best to be as accurate as you can. don't know how this will affect your admission decision, though i do know that it is usually harder for internationals to be accepted.</p>

<p>internationals? what are you talking about?</p>

<p>if someone is "Asian" instead of "Asian-American" that simply means that he or she does not have citizenry in the united states. that person can have a permanent resident card or be here on a visa - it does not mean that person is an international.</p>

<p>or, the person just considers themselves "asian" instead of "asian american".</p>

<p>I really doubt that it makes a difference - they see your citizenship status anyways.</p>
