Hey guys,
I just wanted a clarification on what Hispanics are and which are not considered URM.
I myself am Central American, specifically Panamanian. I called EVMS admissions today and was told that No Central Americans are considered URM which came as a shock and that only Mexican Americans are URM.
I just want to clarify if this holds true throughout all programs or if this is a school by school decision.
Also for myself personally I am curious to see if I was "wrong" for signing up for MedMar even though I am Latino, come from a low income/economically disadvantagedo family, and am first generation. EVMS admissions made me feel as such.
Thanks.
