<p>hi i am half native african and half white, so i don't qualfiy as african american. If i tick the other box and write native african is that still urm?</p>
<p>will i still get same urm status as african american or different?</p>
<p>If you are mulatto, I'm sure you qualify as an African American. But I would just click multi-racial to be sure. </p>
<p>Since the one-drop rule, you'll be perceived as Black by most Americans, and will be discriminated as such so I think you should be allowed to check Black.</p>
