Should I tick "hispanic/latino" when applying to colleges?

<p>They were white - however, the thread “Hispanic/Latino defined” says:</p>

<p>“Origin can be viewed as the heritage, nationality group, lineage, or country of birth of the person or the person’s parents or ancestors before their arrival in the United States.”</p>

<p>Based on this, I think I would qualify because my parent was born in Latin America before coming to the US.</p>
