Hello, I have a question regarding mixed race Applicants

I’m applying in roughly 2 years and I’ve been skimming through the forum lately.

I am Half Afro-Honduran (African descent from Honduras) & half White Male.
My mother is a single mother, and we’ve received government aid /Struggled ever since I can remember.
My question is, what do I check on my application? People often mistake me as just Cuban or something similar. It’s obvious I’m Mixed, but will I still receive the URM “advantage” when applying.

Thank you in advance!

You''re allowed to check multiple categories, and that would appear to be the most accurate in your case.

Just put yourself down as URM. Nobody is giving you a 23 and me to verify. Milk that white guilt with no shame

Absolutely put the URM & if anyone questions it “are you questioning how I identify with my heritage” or similar
