Dual citizenship?

Post by Polycarp » Sun Apr 10, 2011 6:47 pm

Hello,

I understand that I do not qualify as an Under Represented Law School Student by race, because I am European. However, would indicating a second (Ukrainian) citizenship play any role in terms of acceptance into a school? I would have to go to considerable lengths to get any sort of current confirmation of my second citizenship, so I would like to know whether it's an advantage, disadvantage or completely neutral, to indicate that I have both American and Ukrainian citizenship?

Thank you.
