how do i (a mere applicant) know who is considered urm? </p>

<p>Aside from anecdotal evidence, we have very few resources to outline who is and is not considered a urm. However, one powerful resource we have of understanding the urm process is grutter v. Bollinger, a recent case that questioned the validity of race-based admissions. In this case, grutter – a caucasian michigan resident – argued that the four groups considered urm’s (american indians/alaskan natives, african americans/blacks, mexican americans, and puerto ricans) were reviewed under more favorable admissions standards, resulting in her denial of admission at the university of michigan. From this case we are able to deduce the four groups outlined did in fact receive (at least some) “boost” at michigan and, most likely, other law schools as well.
