I had this dilemma applying to colleges, I contemplated putting "south pacific islander" as my mom was born in Australia and I AM technically a citizen of both the USA and Australia

i speak for most egyptians when i say we do not consider ourselves middle eastern. but its not what we think that matters and as vitals said its widely accepted that we are so whatever. but that still doesn't answer my question. should i put african american to use it for my advantage?

What do you normally put on your applications?


I would go with whatever I always use to fill out an application, but I have never been in the position to choose.

edit* what kind of internship are you applying for?

Washington DC. i'll basically be interning at some government agency or political association.

NO that is soo wrong in like soo many ways its geographically north africa im in the minority of the minority of the minorit, african-egyptian-coptic
