I think she’d be judged how she wants to be judged. My daughter, full Chinese, made no effort to have her race play a part in her applications. Nothing indicated she is Chinese - no clubs, no name, no pictures not from a high school with a high percentage of Asians (or minorities in general). Often you can see the look of surprise on people’s faces when they put her name with her face (they are expecting an Irish girl and the Chinese one shows up). It doesn’t seem to matter and she wanted it not to matter.
If your child, @Jean-Jeanie, wants minority status to be considered, child needs to bring it up in the essays or the list of activities. Schools who want more minority students market to those students, encourage them to apply, but in the end they accept qualified students.
