Write your race/ethnicity and how you identify yourself. Stop thinking that checking a race box will get you admitted into a school.

If you are biracial then say so… if you are reaching 10 generations ago and don’t identify with those groups … then check the appropriate box.

You shouldn’t have to ask others what box you should check… check the box you’ve identified with all your life.

I worked in admissions for two years… it does not work like that.
