<p>I am half Hispanic because my mom is from south America, and I am wondering if I should identify myself as Hispanic when I apply for colleges. I heard that colleges are looking for racial diversity, so I want to know if this will give me an advantage. On a side note, I really want to go to an ivy league school and I wonder if my chances will increase by saying I am Hispanic. ( I realize I still need to perform well academically)</p>
