Students must complete all appropriate sections of the enclosed application. Failure to do so may cause delays in the processing of the application. The university is required to report to the federal government the ethnic origin information requested in question 16 of the application.

International students are reported as a separate category and should select the non- resident alien category (number 5) regardless of their racial/ethnic origin. The five racial/ethnic categories are described as follows:
Black, non-Hispanic a person having origins in any of the black racial groups of Africa (except  those of Hispanic origins).
Asian or Pacific Islander a person having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, or Pacific Islands. This includes people from China, Japan, Korea, the Philippine Islands, Samoa, India and Vietnam.     Hispanic a person of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race.
