<p>Being Muslim may not classify you as a URM, but depending on your life experiences, an admissions officer might see admitting someone like yourself as enhancing the diversity of the freshman class. Of course, that would only happen if you wrote compellingly about your religion and the impact it had on you in one of your essays, since it is illegal for many schools to consider religion in their admissions decisions. I would advise you to emphasize who you are and what you can bring to the school instead of focusing much on race or religion.</p>
