no but i can help you out
ive talked to several counselors and its my personal preference i am not an uneducated idiot, i am a very religious person who knows about my culture and i know the difference between a sikh and an indian, i am proud to be a URM because i want to make something out of myself, a very rare goal among Sikhs. my goal in life is to repay my family for taking a chance from immigrating to a comfortable and luxurious life in punjab to coming to a country with very low paying jobs and big ambitions for future generations (me).

<p>You can go ahead and be proud of your heritage, but that does not change the fact that you will not be considered URM. The fact that your parents left luxurious lives to give you a good education will not change your ethnicity or URM status.</p>
