Confused as to if this will help me in admissions.

<p>As I discussed in the linked threads, MA and PR heritage is the most sought after because they are the most underserved in US colleges. </p>

<p>After that, I’d say it depends on other qualities such as SES, overcoming adversity, association with the Hispanic community, etc. However, understand that this is an assumption based on personal experience what I’ve seen here on CC, I have no inside information. </p>

<p>One could take a more cynical approach and assume that adcoms see all Hispanics as a check in the box and count them accordingly.</p>

<p>My advice is always to make yourself the best candidate possible and any amount of bump you get is a plus :).</p>
