<p>Ok, so I'm Colombian, and I have lived in the United States for the past ten years. I'm applying to Stanford, Yale, UPenn, and Tufts.</p>
<p>I do not have my permanent residency yet so I will be considered an international applicant. However, I was wondering if I will still get Hispanic status? If not, is there any benefit at all to coming from an underrepresented country?</p>
