<p>The application for MIT MITES 2008 is finally out! (They really meant late when they said late October). Who's applying?</p>
<p>I'm applying. So techno you've been checking there site everyday for the past week too?</p>
<p>More like for the past month :)</p>
<p>But I'm glad that it's finally out.</p>
<p>I've only been anticipating it 4 the past 2 years now- i've practically memorized their application.</p>
<p>do u know what else, besides SAT score, they look 4 in an applicant?</p>
<p>^ Yeah, what do they look for in applicants? I'm not sure if I'll even apply because I don't fit the low-income/1st-gen/minority thing...</p>
<p>JW, does minority include Asian?</p>
<p>are india,pakistani,bangladesh considered minority?</p>
<p>Ditto to the first generation thing...is it okay if we're not??</p>
<p>MIT</a> MITE2S: Overview</p>
<p>Based on the picture on this page, I'd say that Asians aren't included in their definition of minority -- however, they do state that "underrepresented ethnicities and other underrepresented groups" .. so that probably implies first-gen. I see one Asian girl. She is probably first gen.</p>
