I am a male senior in high school who is currently applying to colleges. I am half Korean and half white and I was wondering if that groups me into the multi-racial category? On the common app. you cannot select multi-racial but you can select more than one race which I have done. I was also wondering if admit rates are higher for multi-racial students like they are for underrepresented minorities, even though I am half asian (ORM). Thanks for the insight
Po-tay-toe; po-tah-toe. It’s the same thing.
I don’t think any college breaks out the data. Multi-racial where one is Native American or Black probably has a higher admit rate. Multi-racial Asian/white has no benefit, IMO.
