Ironically enough I think I stumbled upon the answer while updating my LSAC account's address. Under the ethnicity portion there is a box to checkmark whether you want to send this information to law schools or not. This pretty much answers my question.vanwinkle wrote:I've wondered about this. Do those schools not give a URM boost to any Hispanics, or do they give one to all of them? I have yet to figure out a clear answer to that question.bk187 wrote:This is unrelated to the OP's situation, but shouldn't it be noted that certain schools do not differentiate between different Hispanics and thus PR/MX cannot expect a normal URM boost unless they talk about it in their DS?
