Race/Ethnicity

[gracepreet]

So,
I was having trouble with the race/ethnicity portion of the application.
I am Mexican, so I obviously marked Hispanic Origin, Mexican-American, Chicano/Chicana and Central American.

But, for the race section, I didn't mark anything, because I am not African American, Asian, White, etc.

By not marking a race, it won't jeopardize my chances right?

No, don't worry about it. Just fill it out like you have and you should be safe, but I thought there was a hispanic option?

 

[gracepreet]

there were two separate categories

ethnicity options were: hispanic or non-hispanic

race options:
American Indian, Alaska native
Asian (with a large list of the various races)
Black or African American
Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander
White
