MIT MOSTEC 2018 Admissions

I know that MIT’s MITES summer program mainly admits students from underrepresented minorites/ low income backgrounds. Does anyone know if the MOSTEC program works the same way? I would love to apply for MOSTEC but I’m afraid my application wouldn’t even be considered since I am an Asian male from an upper middle-class background.

If there are any MOSTEC alumni out there, do you know how much the MOSTEC admissions committee considers race/ethnicity/background? Would it make sense for me to apply?

I would also like to know this

you should’ve applied. They can consider you.
