considered an URM
I wasnt sure if URM, was specifically if you were latino or african american or if it can also include: If you have a father that is caucasian and a mother that is of middle eastern descent? or is that not URM?

Nope, not URM at all. Mexican, African American, Puerto Rican, and Native American only.barberiolisa wrote:I wasnt sure if URM, was specifically if you were latino or african american or if it can also include: If you have a father that is caucasian and a mother that is of middle eastern descent? or is that not URM?
Btw, Middle Eastern is Caucasian.

Yeah you don't get a boost for this. You may try writing a diversity statement (but i wouldn't expect to get any benefit from it)barberiolisa wrote:I wasnt sure if URM, was specifically if you were latino or african american or if it can also include: If you have a father that is caucasian and a mother that is of middle eastern descent? or is that not URM?
