Underrepresented minority-hold much weight?

<p>Hi,
I am wondering how Kenyon tends to deal with students of color in terms of admissions. I am mixed race with Mexican-Filipino, Chinese, and Russian Jewish. I know the school itself is not very ethnically diverse, so does that mean that most minorities who apply get in?</p>

<p>I am wondering:
I am in the top 7% of my high school (of 3000+ students) with a GPA of 4.3 and i have an ACT of 29. I am VERY active in my extra curricular activities (I do theater and i sing). By Kenyon's standards, would these stats and being a URM get me in?</p>

<p>I would think that those various factors you listed would most definitely get you in. Good rank, high GPA, decent ACT (if it were a tad bit higher, then you are basically in), URM status, and good ECs.</p>
