College Discussion - View Single Post - How to prove/claim Native American heritage on college applications.

I talked to the college admissions people the other day and had a long conversation about my native american heritage, and they said they were interested in the fact that I wanted to learn more and become more involved in my heritage. Although I have decided not to put "Native American" on my application(due to the fact that I would have to provide paperwork which would take time that I simply do not have right now) I would really like to get connected with others of Abenaki blood. So, if you are or know anything else about the heritage or any groups that are still around that I could get in touch with, please let me know

And if you're going to post something rude, or anything of that nature, just save your time and go somewhere else because it's pointless.

Thanks!
