What race/ethnicity to put on common app this fall?

<p>Both my parents are Peruvian. I am a first gen american. So I know to say "yes" to being hispanic. But What should I put afterwords? All I know is that one of my dads grandmothers was black and one of his great great grandfather immigrated from Italy? So should I check both Black AND White? So would this make me basically multiracial on college stats?</p>

<p> Asian (including Indian subcontinent and Philippines)</p>

<p> Black or African American (including Africa and Caribbean)</p>

<p> Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander (Original Peoples)</p>

<p> White (including Middle Eastern)</p>

<p>It’s pretty straightforward, you check all that apply.</p>

<p>yea but then it says to explain. do I just say eighth Muluatto and 16th Italian?</p>

<p>What if you don’t know what percentage of your ancestors, what would describe you?</p>
