<p>Does latino students in the Ivy leagues get looked down because they are URM’s., regardless of their GPA (4.6 GPA)</p>
<p>Cornell University has an active Hispanic/Latino Alumni group. You could ask this question at the Cornell Forum and see if someone there can tell you about their experience (click on Ivy League on the left-hand side of this screen and then click on Cornell).</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>“Looked down?” No way. If anything, being URM gives applicants an edge in being considered at Ivys.</p>
<p>^I wonder if OP means once they are students there.</p>
<p>If it’s Cornell you’re interested in, you might want to check out this page [Cornell</a> University - Student Life - Life on the Hill](<a href=“http://www.cornell.edu/studentlife/blogs/]Cornell”>http://www.cornell.edu/studentlife/blogs/) where nine current students have blogs. </p>
<p>One of the bloggers, Patricia, is Hispanic, but she tends not to write about it; she seems more interested in focusing on her experiences as a student in Cornell’s School of Industrial and Labor Relations (a program unique to Cornell, and she’s the only one of the bloggers who is in that program). There is also an African-American blogger, the second Alex on the list, and he does write about his experiences as a member of a minority group at Cornell. You might find both blogs interesting.</p>
<p>I would think only if you don’t do well (unlikely). When you do well (the norm) all they can say is “no wonder they got accepted.” The resentful people would be the ones that didn’t make it (they won’t be there, will they?) who think they should be in instead of you.</p>
